School textbooks to have message on RTI Act

 Until now, school textbooks had remained beyond the onslaught of advertisements. That is going to change soon, at least in part.
The inside back page of Social and Political Life textbooks for Classes VI to VIII—the favourite doodling area during a boring lecture—is going to sport one. However, instead of poisoning impressionable minds, it will aim to induce them to seek information using their right to information. The page will have a caricature of a girl in uniform who will give basic information about the sunshine legislation and how to file a right to information (RTI) application.
