| Article 141 of the Constitution is very clear that the ruling of the Supreme Court is the law of the land, until, the said ruling is overruled by judicial activism by best ruling. But, some High Court Judges does not care for the Article 141 of the constitution and deliver their own views as judgments impairing the dignity of the ruling of Supreme Court. If Judiciary is also brought under the purview of RTI, then the Judges should be answerable for overlooking the article 141 of the constitution and become liable for contempt of court by Judge themselves. So, Judiciary should come under purview of RTI for transparency in giving fair judgment. | |

| Like any other government department,our judiciary too lacks transperacy. RTI will bring more transperacy into the judicial system. | |

| as far as i see from constitutional point of view judiciary is covered under the definition of state under art 12 of the constitution and thus they rightly come under the purview of RTI. on the principles of natural justice, if judiciary is really sincere in delivering sound judgments i think this would be a great step for the judiciary to consider themselves under the purview of RTI. SATYAMEV JAYATE !!!! | |

| yes judiciary should be coveered under RTI reason being if an aggrieved person is taking appeal to court which works on the principles of natural justice who is to be held accountable that the principles are followed.. and further if we say judge made laws under administrative laws who can be sure law which judge made has made is not bias. therefore transperancy in the most independent organ of the government should not be left unchecked.we must abide whole heartedly to the principles of constitutionalism.. | |

| i think every government official irrespective of what concerned department he belongs to or what position he holds should give account of all his details. in support of this, if in future if any IT officer would like to take account of a certain person whether he has been or he is a govt officer for some reasons, the info provided would be of good disposal... | |

| The Judiciary including H'ble Chief Justice too should come under RTI Act. Every action or decision of judiciary (which is in question) should be bring to review committee (The committee of advocates,legal experts etc.) and decide the validity or propriety of the decision. | |

| no institution is above law. all parts of the state must conduct themselves in a transparant manner. today there may be an honest officer tommorow the veil of secrecy tempts to do mistakes, the transparacy would save from the temptations and it is always desirable; the right to information is a fundamental right / part of the natural rights of any humanbeing. all persons are entitled to know how the decisions influencing their lives are made; such a right is but natural, indispensable and now statutory. | |

| Even the Supreme Court ruled in UP Govt. dismissal case during the then K.R.Narayanan as President of India that since President drawing Salary for every month under the public tax money as such anything done by him shall comes under the judicial scrutiny. So by applying the same yardstick the judges are also drawing salary and other emoluments from the public tax money as such they are also accountable to the general public as such the RTI Act will squarely applies to the Judiciary too. Nobody is above the law. | |

| When the judiciary asks every one to be tranceperent by taking oath in court while deposing any evidence by a person. More over when the judiciary is directing govt.,corporates and individuals to be trnseperent why cant the judiciary be asked to be transeperent under RTI to the entire country. | |

| In India Judiciary is transparent. What is there to hide in Judiciary. Personal matters pertaining to judges and magistrates need not be disclosed to the public. Suits and cases are held public except in some where law permits to do so. Therefore what is there in Judiciary to hide.Judicial system is army protecting the constitution. Can army of a nation be brought under RTI. There is a supreme body in the judicial system to look into the functioning of Judicial system. It should be independent. Should judiciary be covered under RTI Act? Lord Siva gave some a boon to one that if this man touches the head of anyone then the othe man will die. The man tried to test the boon on Lord siva . The story goes that Lord Krishna proteceted siva by killing that man. A boon like RTI is given to the public whi ch was not denied by the Judiciary. Now the public wants to test that boon on Juidiciary. This is bad. | |

| Judiciary being one of the pillars of our democracy must be open to public scrutiny for the betterment and health of our country's democracy. Citizens are masters of a democratic country and all other organs must be subject to their scrutity and be accountable to them. It is no secret that lot of corruption and corrupt practices are prevailing in our judiciary, especially at the lower level, which can, to a large extent, be eliminated if RTI is made applicable to the judiciary and the public is properly educated to make use of the provisions of RTI. | |
