The full form of RTI is Right to Information. The right to information is granted under the RTI Act, 2005, passed by the Indian Parliament on June 15, 2005, and into effect on October 12, 2005. To enhance accountability and openness in the operation of public authorities, the RTI aims to protect access to data under public authority control.

India as a whole is covered under the Act. In the state of Jammu and Kashmir, the Jammu & Kashmir Right to Information Act was already in effect. However, the Union Territories of Jammu & Kashmir and Ladakh fell under the Central Act once Article 370 of the Indian Constitution was repealed. Any organisation or body founded or established by an act of a state legislature or a Parliament is included, as are all constitutional authorities, including executives, legislatures, and judiciaries.
