In India, the Right to Information Act was enacted in the year 2005. Right to information Act helps citizens to be informed and ensures the transparency in work of government for smooth functioning of democracy. It has been felt that even after 12 years since the Act had come in to force there is lack of awareness among people about this. The paper tries to test the awareness of college students about their right to information and the procedure by which information can be sought. For this, a survey was conducted among one hundred students from five different colleges in Chennai. Even though majority of them were aware of the Act but were not aware of the procedures. As a part of the research the students were educated on the right to which they are entitled and the procedure to enforce their rights.
