Delhi Municipal Corporation Has Not Digitised Records, RTI Response Shows
The Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) has not digitised any documents or records, according to a Right to Information (RTI) response dated October 8. This disclosure comes amid a Delhi High Court petition seeking online publication of the MCD's legislative records, House proceedings, and committee resolutions. The petition, filed by the Centre For Youth Culture Law And Environment (CYCLE), highlights concerns over opaque record-keeping, especially after the Satya Niketan building collapse. The court has criticised the MCD for not updating public documents for over 20 years, despite earlier claims of ongoing digitisation efforts.
