Success of democracy is impossible without participation of the people" - Hon'ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi
India is the largest democracy in the world and citizens here are highly enthusiastic to be a part of Governance. In a democratic system, citizen participation is one of the key components of decision making process. MyGov is an innovative platform launched to ensure citizens' engagement in decision making by the Government so that the ultimate goal of "Good Governance" for building India is achieved. This initiative is an opportunity for citizens and well-wishers from across the world to share their views on key issues directly with the Prime Minister of India.
Hon'ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi launched MyGov to empower the citizens of India to contribute towards Surajya. The Prime Minister believes that "the success of democracy is impossible without participation of the people".
The platform - MyGov - encourages citizens as well as people abroad to 'Discuss' and 'Do'. There are multiple theme-based discussions on MyGov where a wide range of people can share their thoughts and ideas. Further, any idea shared by a contributor will also be discussed on these discussion forums, allowing constructive feedback and interaction among participants. MyGov aims to establish a link between Government and Citizens towards meeting the goal of good governance in the country. For those who wish to go beyond discussions and wish to contribute on the ground, MyGov offers several avenues to do so. Citizens can volunteer for various tasks and submit their entries. These tasks would then be reviewed by other members and experts. Once approved, these tasks can be shared by those who complete the task and by other members on MyGov platform. Every approved task would earn credit points for completing the task.
Groups and creative corners are an important part of MyGov. The platform has been divided into various groups namely Clean Ganga,Green India, Job Creation, Girl Child Education, Skill Development, Digital India, Swachh Bharat (Clean India). Each group consists of online and onground tasks that can be taken up by the contributors. The objective of each group is to bring about a qualitative change in that sphere through people's participation.
