The Maharashtra Right to Information (Repeal) Act, 2005

General20053 sections

This law repeals the Maharashtra Right to Information Act from 2002 and a 2005 ordinance, effectively ending the state's Right to Information framework. It ensures that any paperwork or appeals currently in progress before the law took effect must still be finished using the old rules. Furthermore, any actions already started under the repealed ordinance are treated as if they occurred under this new law to maintain legal continuity. Consequently, the state no longer grants citizens the legal right to request information from government authorities, and all prior related legal actions are governed by this measure.
