To Reduce corruption District Anti corruption helpline should be done not Toll Free, Investigation to allegation should be informed to higher authority by email so that it will speed up

Good initiative to share peoples' ideas with Government!!
I have been trying to share my idea of cost savings of # 400 Cr pa on Indian Railways.
I have already put across the message to the high Railway officials viz the Chairman,
Railway Board, Member-Traffic, Member-Staff, High Powered Committee etc. But, I am yet to get any response. I would be happy if I get an opportunity to be heard.

What i experience is whenever any infrastructure work is done the quality of work is not maintained. so the same work has to be repair after few months. there is no check on the work by sanctioning authority while the work is going on. I have found only labourers doing job no contractor is present, nor sanctioning authority visit the work. these shabby work exceeds and renews expenditure and waste of public money, people face the same problems again and again.

People are purchasing new cars Mumbai or any city need more and more space. There is no space in mumbai to walk. why not make public transport more efficient. Once BEST buses were running on time table and on any stop we used to know the time. Buses can be smaller and in more no. at some routes. and run on few minutes difference. people will surely use more public transport ans save expenditure on cars. this will also help in saving fuel, and curtailing pollution. it need better roads.

With us in this unfortunate time.both the thing must be given within 15 days .

Honourable Prime Minister,
India.
I am just going through the martyr history who lost their life to save us.
I have a suggestion regarding condolences must be given by our prime minister in case of ArmyMan and from Chief Minister in case of Police, traffic police, fire brigade person.
If a condolence letter with a shield or we can say a Tamra Patra can be send to the martyr family , it will give a courage to the martyr 's family.
if u inclue this i am sure they think our PM or Cm

Honble PM,For your boldness and dynamism,you can think of taking a very bold step for the Budget.Tax on Expenses.In onestroke,you will solve the Black money problems.This will pave the way for a speedier development.If there is a Will there is a Way!Sathyameva Jayathe!

Hon. Prime Minister,
India,
I am submitting you an innovative draft on appointment of 'grameen mitra' in every village. This proposal will definitely help the villagers and it will be a revolutionary step for transforming the village life. I request you to pay attention on it.

Thanks and Regards,

(B) The time grameen mitra spend on his tasks (3 A's - Awareness, Aid and Attention) will be relatively flexible.

[7] ROLES AND RESPONSIBILITIES:

Grameen mitra will basically perform three types of roles in village life, viz. a social reformer (by making social awareness), a friend of villagers (by helping the villagers) and a vigilant citizen (by examining the functioning of gram panchayat and government officials).
[3 A's of grameen mitra = Awareness, Aid and Attention]

(A) AS A SOCIAL REFORMER:

(1) He will work for the involvement of villagers to create a mass movement to improve quality of life in village. (2) He will go door-to-door to give detailed information about various government schemes. (3) He will make awareness about superstition, casteism, female foeticide, child marrige, honour killing and other social problems and will work against them.
(4) He will make awareness about health, sanitation and education and will take efforts to stop the leakage of students from the schools.
(5) Some villagers are apathetic towards the gram sabha. He will generate enthusiasm in them to take part in the gram sabha meetings.

(B) AS A FRIEND OF VILLAGERS:

(1) Some villagers (mainly women and dalits) hesitates to raise their questions in gram sabha meeting due to fear or shyness. They will be able to tell their problems to the grameen mitra before gram sabha meeting. He will put these issues in gram sabha meeting on behalf of them (without mentioning their names).
(2) He will help the sarpanch and panchayat secretary to provide the benefits of government schemes to the needy villagers. (3) He will provide a common platform to all the villagers for their queries and complaints. Any villager having any type of query or complaint about any government official or service, will be able to directly submit it towards the grameen mitra. It will be the duty of grameen mitra to forward these queries and complaints in a proper format to the respective departments and to take regular follow up of them. (as majority of villagers are unaware of where and how to register their complaints and from where and how to get information)
(4) Grameen mitra will guide the villagers for obtaining agricultural loans from banks, cast certificates, income certificates, domicile certificates, etc. from SDM (Sub-Divisional Magistrate) office or tehsil, for registration of lands at sub-registrar office and for other official works.
(5) He will go to the tehsil, banks or other government offices with the villagers, who are illiterate or completely unaware of these procedures, for helping them. It will stop the loot of illiterate villagers by the corrupt government officials and will save their important time.
(6) He will guide the village students regarding the career opportunities and will help them for taking admission in the colleges of nearby cities, for higher education.
(7) Government should provide him a computer with internet facility (at his home or at gram panchayat office). And it will be his duty to give basic knowledge regarding the use of computer and internet to the villagers. He will also help the villagers to get information about new agricultural techniques, recent agricultural trends, weather conditions, etc.
(8) Students will be able to get his help to obtain information about various exams, scholarships, job vacancies, etc. and to apply for the same.
(9) He will work to resolve the quarrels between the villagers and will try to secure peace and establish unity among them.
(10) He will try to resolve the disputes between gram panchayat secretary, sarpanch and gram panchayat councillors and will maintain good relationship between them.
(11) He will be able to give innovative suggestions to the sarpanch and gram panchayat councillors to promote the programmes of adult education, family welfare, etc.

[C] AS A VIGILANT CITIZEN:

(1) The quality of life indicators such as primary education, employment, safe drinking water, open defecation free village, toilets in individual houses as well as public places, solid and liquid waste management, cleanliness of all public places as well as individual houses, pucca roads and streets, transport and last mile connectivity, power and street lights, primary health center, internet connectivity, reduction in infant mortality rate and maternal mortality rate, etc. will be periodically assessed by him on behalf of the villagers. And it will be his duty to produce this assessment report at every gram sabha meeting.
(2) He will raise the issues related with public interest in gram sabha meeting.
(3) On behalf of the villagers, he will examine the functioning of school teachers, PHC doctors, gram panchayat officials and other government employees which are providing service to the villagers and the official records of the same will be scrutinized by him.
(4) He will also have the power of examining the functioning of sarpanch and village councillors. (5) He will produce his report on the functioning of these government officials and elected members at every gram sabha meeting.
(6) He will be able to just praise or critisize them before the villagers in gram sabha meeting but will have no power to take action against them. If there is any serious issue, he will be able to send his report to the BDO or other concerned departments. Shortly, he will perform a role of lokpal (or we can say it as a 'grampal') at village level. In this way the active inspection by grameen mitra will lead to enhance the quality of service and to reduce corruption.

[8] WORK ASSESSMENT:

(A) Grameen mitra will be accountable to the gram sabha and thus he should produce his work report at every gram sabha meeting.
(B) The periodical assessment of his work will be done by the gram sabha.

[9] REMOVAL:

(A) Once appointed, the grameen mitra will remain in service until his retirement age of 60 yrs. or death.
(B) He will be able to give his resignation to the sarpanch.
(C) If he doesn't work satisfactory then the gram sabha will be able to hold his allowance or suspend him (for maximum of 2 months).
(D) If a request letter for the dismission of grameen mitra, signed by at least 100 members of gram sabha, is given to the BDO then he will have to give order to arrange a special gram sabha meeting. In this meeting, under the chairmanship of BDO or his representative, voting will be done. If the dismission of grameen mitra is supported by a majority of members (and by a majority of not less than two-thirds of the members for women and dalits) then he will be dismissed. And a new grameen mitra will be selected/elected in his place in the same gram sabha meeting.

»Clarifications for your questions:

(A) How does the position of village mitra avoid the duplication of panchayat councillors or members?

(1) Panchayat councillors are the representative of their wards while grameen mitra will be selected/elected by gram sabha. (2) Village councillors are accountable to the villagers of their wards where as grameen mitra will be accountable to all the villagers and will provide service to them.
(3) The duty of village councillors is the proper utilization of the fund for the development of villagers while grameen mitra will inspect their functioning.
(4) Some duties of grameen mitra related with social awareness coincides with the duties of village councillors but here we have to understand that they have to work together for the involvement of villagers to create a mass movement to improve the quality of life in villages. Besides this the other duties of grameen mitra are far different from the duties of village councillors.
(5) Village councillors are elected for 5 yr. term where as grameen mitra will remain in service until his retirement age of 60 yrs. or death. In this way the position of grameen mitra avoids the duplication of panchayat councillors.

(B) How does the position of village mitra avoid the duplication of panchayat secretary or officials?

(1) Panchayat secretary is accountable to the BDO while grameen mitra will be accountable to the villagers.
(2) Panchayat secretary performs all administrative work of Village Panchayat like recovery of taxes and fees, recording proceedings of Village Panchayat meetings, giving notice of occurence of vacancy in a Village Panchayat, serving the notices of motion of no confidence, maintaining the accounts of Village Panchayat, maintaining the accounts of cattle-pounds, maintaining the records of births and deaths in the Village Panchayat, etc. and he works for the government and sarpanch where as the grameen mitra will work for the villagers.
(3) The duties of panchayat secretary and grameen mitra are totally different from each other. In this way the position of village mitra avoids the duplication of panchayat secretary and officials.

(C) Shall he be a government officer or elected member?

He will be an elected volunteer. But he will get fixed remuneration (which will be based on a basic set of activities which he will have to perform every month) + outcome-based remuneration (like ASHA workers) and financial compensation for training days.

(D) Do you want him to sit regularly or work like a freelancer?

(1) There will be no separate office for him. Villagers will be able to approach him directly at his home, at any time.
(2) The time grameen mitra spend on his tasks (3 A's - Awareness, Aid and Attention) will be relatively flexible.
(3) Though grameen mitra is considered as a volunteer, we can't say him as a freelancer because he will get fixed + outcome-based remuneration from state government.

(E) Any proposed number of population a village mitra shall serve?

At least 300 people of voting age to 1500 (population) : 01          
               1501-3000 : 02
               3001-4500 : 03
               4501-6000 : 04
               6001-7500 : 05
               7501-9000 : 06
