What better way to start the new year than posting a couple of links of sites that, I hope, will do their bit in strengthening Indian democracy (I found them in a column - in the Marathi Daily Loksatta - that promises to write about such gems this year):

http://indiankanoon.org/ - Check out Indian laws and Judgements

http://govcheck.net/ - Check if the dudes and dudettes you elected are doing any substantial work or not

http://www.askneta.com/ - A similar site as above. When I tried to check it out, it asked for my email address. I didn't give mine so I cannot say much.

http://www.yestopolitics.com/ - for those of us who still have some hopes from the world of politics, this site should be useful.

http://rtination.com/ - Need help in submitting RTI application? This is the place to visit.
