AMU alumnus Adil Hossain is one of the top 5 young faces of RTI movement in India

OUTLOOK has selected AMU alumnus Adil Hossain (MA Mass Communication 2009-10) as one of the top 5 young faces of RTI movement in India (http://www.outlookindia.com/article.aspx?267396). Adil was unceremoniously thrown out of AMU by the regime of Prof P K Abdul Azis, Vice Chancellor, Aligarh Muslim University, on charges of “damaging the reputation and tarnishing the image of AMU”. He is credited with encouraging the spread of RTI in AMU. According to OUTLOOK, Adil also used RTI to probe AMU’s infamous on-campus Local Intelligence Unit (which spied on the now-dead gay professor Shrinivas Siras), sought data on disciplinary action against students and questioned the cancellation of student polls. He is said to have irked the AMU administration by posting information obtained through RTI online.
