do the citizens of india have a right to information?

The concept that people have this *right* is an ethical question and I support the position that all have this right.\n\nWhether people actually have it is a legal question based on the laws of their country. China, for example, has government policies in place that restrict the information the inhabitants can freely receive.\n\nIn India, there are domestic rights organizations that are vigilant in protecting and preserving the citizens perceived rights including that of information. (1)\n\nEvery country has a segment that would restrict information and any of the other qualities that are considered *rights*. Regardless of political party there are essentially two kinds of people; those who wish controls and those who do not want controls.

The U.S. Constitution does not explicitly state there is a right to privacy.  However, the Supreme Court has decided that the Constitution offers the right implicitly.

Over sixty one countries around the world have implemented some form of freedom of information legislation, which sets rules on governmental secrecy. Many more countries are working towards introducing such laws, and many regions of countries with national legislation have local laws - for example, all states of the US have access laws as well as the national legislation. In general, such laws define a legal process by which government information is available to the public; in some countries, they may only apply to journalists, or to people with a legal need for the information. In many countries there are vague constitutional guarantees for the right of access to information, but usually these are unused unless specific legislation exists to support them.\n\nThese laws may also be described as open records or (especially in the United States) sunshine laws (alluding to "letting light shine" on the process). A related concept is open meetings legislation, which allows the public access to government meetings, not just to the records of them. In many countries, privacy or data protection laws may be part of the freedom of information legislation; the concepts are often closely tied together in political discourse.\n\nA basic principle behind most freedom of information legislation is that the burden of proof falls on the body asked for information, not the person asking for it. The requester does not usually have to give an explanation for their request, but if the information is not disclosed a valid reason has to be given.

Freedom of the press and speech is a given right of the constitution.  We run into trouble when bureaucrats interpret the Constitution and begin to malign it beyond recognition.  \n\nThere are inalian rights which should never be precluded by the courts.

This is a Q on patient's rights and I don't think that is similar all over the world. Even if the patient is under arrest he doesn't loose his rights as a human. \nIn Europe there is the Indipendent Principle for the Protection of Personal Data. The health status of a patient is considered as sensible personal data. You can enter their site and have a look.\nI think that we can't release any information, if they have not a special mandate for this reason.\nKaterina

I suspect your question is rhetorical, and you know the answer is no.  Natural rights are what we have just for being human beings, such as mentioned in the Declaration of Independence, AMONG THESE (not all of them) are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.\n\nPrivileges are just that; something which is granted by an authority and can be taken away by that authority.  Name one privilege the U.S. government has granted to all citizens?  The "right" to vote is actually a privilege, since it can be taken away by the government, and is if you are convicted of a felony, if you swear allegiance to another country, probably other reasons.

Businesses can only get information on the right of prospective employees to work in the U.S. (and only if they have the resources to inquire). As a citizen, you can get information from the web (www.uscis.gov), but that's about it unless you are in the middle of sponsoring someone for an immigration benefit.

No.  That right is reserved for citizens and legal residents.\n\nThey do not have "civil rights."  They have "human rights."  This is an important distinction.  Also, to infer that the Constitution is bestowing rights on illegals is like assuming that illegals have the right to bear arms and vote.  "The people" in the Constitution very specifically means "the citizens" of the USA.\n\nWikipedia\nCivil Rights\nCivil rights are the protections and privileges of personal liberty given to all citizens by law. Civil rights are distinguished from "human rights" or "natural rights"—civil rights are rights that are bestowed by nations on those within their territorial boundaries, while natural or human rights are rights that many scholars claim ought to belong to all people.
