We received a total of 1130 nominations in the citizens’ category.
In the first round, those cases were shortlisted who had used RTI for any public purpose rather than for personal benefit such as ones' own transfer, rations card, pension etc. The intent was to recognize those who attempted to use RTI for the larger good of citizens as a whole as opposed to personal needs.
Then we met each of the jury members individually to discuss the applicants. 19 such citizens have now made it to the list of finalists who made substantial public impact through the use of RTI.
