"Skydropped": Congress Dissents On Top RTI Watchdog Appointments

The government's decision to appoint new Information Commissioners opposed by the Congress in a dissent note has set up a new political flashpoint. Retired Indian Foreign Service (IFS) officer Yashvardhan Kumar Sinha is all set to become the new Chief Information Commissioner (CIC) of India, government sources have told NDTV. Journalist Uday Mahurkar is likely to be named an Information Commissioner, they said, adding that the official process towards these appointments has been initiated.
