RTIs are good tool to get information about corrupt practices. But the main question is do the corrupt actually get punished in the present system? For example Planning Commission, which estimated a poverty line figure of Rs 28 per day per person, lavished Rs 35 lakh on refurbishing two toilets in its headquarters. Also the commission has admitted in an RTI response, it has spent Rs 5.19 lakh in installing an access control system in the toilets.
