Information Mismanagement

Its really strange. Karnataka talks so much of being a forerunner in E governence,The officials brags so much about it when they come to New Delhi to attend conferences. But I have noticed that its website is not updated regularly and all the Government Orders , Notifications etc are not uploaded to internet.Concealing information is still a mean of corruption and officials extort bribes to provide the GO s notifications etc. The right to Information act 2005 has not helped people much.
The K C S conduct rules,1966 says that official should not disclose official information to public!. Hence senior officers still hate the public and only do the needful when "political will"compel them to do so.
