MUMBAI: The Bombay high court on Tuesday asked the BMC if it could ban the entry of RTI activists and users from entering civic buildings.

It will promote corruption,” the petitioner said.The high court has asked BMC to take further instructions and scheduled the matter for further hearing after four weeks. “These are public institutions and you may be well within its right to regulate entry. But can you ban entry completely?.
