Will the Reliance Infrastructure-led Mumbai Metro One Private Ltd's (MMOPL), which is operating the 11.04km Versova-Andheri-Ghatkopar corridor, come under the under the ambit of the RTI Act? If RTI activist Shailesh Gandhi has his way, then yes. The well-known activist has filed a compliant with the Maharashtra Chief Information Commissioner (CIC) and demanded that Mumbai Metro operator be made a public body since it performs a public function and has been funded by the government and is thus amenable to judicial law and review.
The activist filed the complaint with CIC after his RTI query was turned down by MMOPL and the activist was asked to contact MMRDA for the information he had demanded.
