The RTI Act was enacted with the spirit of ensuring transparency and accountability in the working of every public authority. The RTI Act sets out the practical regime of right to information for citizens to secure access to information under the control of public authorities. Hence, as observed by the High Court of Delhi in CPIO, Supreme Court of India v. S.C. Agarwal W. P. (C) No. 188/2009, the RTI Act is premised on disclosure being the norm, and refusal, the exception. According to the RTI Act, information may be exempted from disclosure in accordance with Section 8 and 9 only and no other exemptions can be claimed while rejecting a demand for disclosure.
