https://patrakardefence.in/blog/dpdc-practical-guide-series-rtis-3/ https://patrakardefence.in/blog/dpdc-practical-guide-series-rtis-3/ it is important to conduct thorough independent research on the subject at hand and to ask detailed, precise questions to limit the ability of the Public Information Officer (PIO) to misunderstand or refuse to answer.
PROTECTION OF SOURCES FOR JOURNALISTS https://patrakardefence.in/blog/protection-of-source-for-journalists/ India does not have any comprehensive law that protects journalists from being made to reveal their sources in legal proceedings. Some laws offer protection to sources in specific contexts.

There has been no development on this, since, unfortunately.
