    GOVERNMENT OF PUDUCHERRY DEPARTMENT OF REVENUE AND DISASTER MANAGEMENT INTRODUCTION Background of this Hand Book: The Right to information is derived from our fundamental right of expression under Article 19 of the Constitution of India. The Right to Information Act 2005 provides for setting out the practical regime of right to information for citizens to secure access to information, in order to promote accountability in the working of every public authority. Democracy requires an informed citizenry and transparency of information which are vital to its functioning and also to contain corruption and to hold Governments and their instrumentalities accountable to the governed. Revelation of information in actual practice is likely to conflict with other public interests including efficient operations of the Governments, optimum use of limited fiscal resources and the preservation of confidentiality of sensitive information and it is necessary to harmonise these conflicting interest and while preserving the paramountcy of the democratic ideal; it is expedient to provide for furnishing certain information to citizens who desire to have it. Objective/Purpose of this Hand Book: In pursuance of the objectives set forth in the “The Right to Information Act 2005”, this hand book of information on functions and activities of the Department of Revenue and Disaster Management is prepared in order that citizens should have access to the information on the working of the department and to ensure a transparent administration. Endeavour is made to bring out the minute duties of Revenue and land administration right from the issue of certificate by the Village Administrative Officer to maintenance of law and order by the District Magistrate.
