Trust deficit?

Trust deficit: The ministry of environment and forests is seeking judicial reprieve against the Chief Information Commissioner (CIC) order of April 9, 2012 asking the ministry to make public the report of the Western Ghats Ecology Expert Panel (WGEEP). In its order, the CIC has noted “if such reports are put in public domain, citizens’ views and concerns can be articulated in a scientific and reasonable manner. If the government has reasons to ignore the reports, these should logically be put before people. Otherwise, citizens would believe that the government’s decisions are arbitrary or corrupt. Such a trust deficit would never be in the interest of the nation.”
