Have you tried out the RTI Act?
Don’t know how far the bureaucracy will allow this to function, but
the Right to Information Act seems to be — at least for now –

For instance a message I was sharing with my colleagues on the Goajourno mailing list here had this surprising subject-line: “Information Dept’s affidavit termed ‘a bundle of contradictions, misleading statements, if not deliberate lies’.”
If you’d want to join a network of citizens looking at loopholes and
possible innovative deployments of this law, sign-up here.
