A new report from the Free and Fair Election Network (Fafen) assesses the Right to Information (RTI) law in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) province, Pakistan, twelve years after its enactment. The report finds the law is significantly underutilized and contributes to the spread of disinformation due to weak enforcement and structural deficiencies. Despite being the first province to adopt such legislation following a constitutional amendment, proactive disclosure of required information by public bodies averages only 57 percent. This lack of transparency creates opportunities for speculation and the proliferation of false narratives, according to Fafen. The report identifies flaws in the law’s definition of “public body” and a lack of enforcement mechanisms, timelines, and penalties for non-compliance. Furthermore, the KP Information Commission suffers from a lack of financial and operational independence, hindering its ability to effectively oversee and enforce the RTI law. Fafen urges the KP Assembly and government to implement targeted legal and institutional reforms to strengthen the framework and promote public accountability.
