The Death of RTI in BJP-Ruled India: How the DHFL Scam Exposes a System Built on Secrecy and Vote Theft by Partyless Society Via Flickr: onceinabluemoon2021.in/2025/11/08/the-will-to-hide-vote-t...; onceinabluemoon2021.in/2025/10/25/rti-under-siege-the-dea...; onceinabluemoon2021.in/2025/08/10/demand-transparent-acco...; onceinabluemoon2021.in/2024/09/25/autopsy-of-rti-in-the-p... In BJP-ruled India, the Right to Information is facing a slow, deliberate death — extinguished precisely where citizens need it most. DHFL victims seeking transparency on the RBI-CoC’s expenditures, minutes, and voting records find their RTIs stonewalled, redirected, or denied, revealing an institutional will to hide rather than transparently disclose. This assault on transparency unfolds alongside widespread allegations of vote theft, where manipulated rolls and silent deletions weaken democratic consent. The same ecosystem that shields financial wrongdoing also corrodes electoral integrity: when RTI is strangled and votes are stolen, accountability collapses, and citizens lose both their money and their voice.
