This is with reference to the articles “Water War between Punjab and Haryana: A Geographical Insight” by H S Mangat and “Water Crisis in Punjab and Haryana: Politics of Sutlej–Yamuna Link Canal” by Sucha Singh Gill (EPW, 10 December 2016).
I fully endorse the viewpoint of Prabodh Saxena (EPW, 18 pril 2009) to the effect that there is an imperative need to widen the purview of the Right to Information (RTI) Act so far as the definition of “public authority” is concerned.
