PrajaNet Mission
Adding power to the multitude of people’s movements working to reform the fundamental processes of governance in India. History of PrajaNet
People's movement for governance reforms got a big impetus on May 2nd, 2002, when the Supreme Court passed a landmark judgment directing the Election Commission to issue orders for full disclosure by candidates contesting Parliamentary and State Assembly elections. This landmark judgment generated hope and a renewed faith in democracy.

A group of volunteers based in Bay Area came together to start a signature campaign with a desire to increase awareness and garner support to ensure nothing short of the full and honest enforcement of this SC ruling is implemented. On January 26, 2003 the volunteers adopted the name PrajaNet (People's Resolve to Act for Justice and Accountability - Network) to support such efforts to bring about broader transparency in civic life.

Since the signature campaign, the group has organized a variety of fund raising and awareness events. The funds raised through such events are used to financially support select programs of supported groups. Our volunteers take personal interest in tracking these programs and helping them succeed. PrajaNet Plan
To realize its vision, PrajaNet aims at:

1. Extending its volunteer base from Bay Area to other regions in the US, in India and globally.
2. Establishing closer ties with local Indian groups and individuals working towards governance reforms and people's empowerment.
3. Establishing closer ties with government agencies and individuals that have themselves initiated or are responsible for ensuring governance reforms.
