CPI MP Criticizes Economic Survey on RTI Act

A member of parliament from the Communist Party of India (CPI) named P Sandosh Kumar wrote a letter to the Prime Minister, Narendra Modi.

He was upset about something called the Economic Survey 2025–26.

This survey suggested that a law called the Right to Information (RTI) Act might need to be changed.

The RTI Act is a law that lets people ask the government for information, which helps keep the government honest.

Sandosh Kumar said that changing this law would be a bad idea because it would make the government less transparent and more likely to be corrupt.

He also said that the government has already made it harder to use the RTI Act over the past decade.

He asked the Prime Minister to remove the parts of the survey that talk about changing the RTI Act and to promise to keep the law strong.
