Right to Information| Chargesheets and final reports not equivalent to FIRs; can’t be published on State Websites for public access: Supreme Court
The prayer seeking free public access to chargesheets and final reports was made relying on ruling in Youth Bar Association of India v. Union of India, (2016) 9 SCC 473, wherein the Supreme Court had directed copies of FIRs to be published within 24 hours of their registration on the police websites or on the websites of the State Governments.
