Public Schools
The Right to Information (RTI) Act can be used to address India's public education issues in the following ways :
RTI can be used to obtain information about the functioning of schools. This information can then be used to identify any problems in the functioning of schools.
RTI can be used to obtain information about the utilization of school funds. This information can then be used to identify any misuse of school funds.
RTI can be used to obtain information about the distribution of school funds. This information can then be used to identify any disparities in the distribution of school funds.
Here are some success stories of how the RTI Act has been used to address public education issues in India:

The information that they obtained showed that the school was not functioning properly. The parents used this information to file a complaint with the government. The government took action against the school and improved its functioning.
In 2011, a group of students in Mumbai used the RTI Act to obtain information about the utilization of school funds. The information that they obtained showed that the school funds were being misused. The students used this information to file a complaint with the Lokayukta, which is an anti-corruption watchdog. The Lokayukta ordered the government to take action against the people who were misusing the school funds.
In 2012, a group of teachers in Chennai used the RTI Act to obtain information about the distribution of school funds. The information that they obtained showed that the school funds were being distributed in a discriminatory manner. The teachers used this information to file a complaint with the government.
