“There are 2 motives behind working for MyGov. Firstly, India and secondly, my unconditional support to Mr. Narendra Modi. In my view this is a great initiative and my support will be rendered as and when needed. This can be my bit to work for my nation. Working for this project has been enlightening and informative. In addition, the entire MyGov team has been extremely supportive. Thanks. Cheers!!”

Vivek RaiVivek Rai:
“First of all, I appreciate efforts of MyGov and its team. It gave a nation-wide platform to suggest solutions for good governance.When I was reading suggestions by people on different groups, I was amazed to read some of ideas and suggestions from different parts of our country. Really, it is a learning experience for me. Hope such momentum will continue further…”

My role with MyGov involved going through comments posted by citizens on various discussion boards. I felt I played a key role in getting the voice of my nation across to the government. Thank you for the great opportunity to work on such an initiative. Maybe the deadlines were tough at times but I gave something back to my country. Proud to be an Indian!

Tuhina ChatterjeeTuhina Chatterjee:
“Volunteering with ‘MyGov’ gives me a unique opportunity to understand public opinion and people’s participation in matters of governance beyond the data captured through opinion polls and surveys. Having an education background in political science and a keen interest in area of governance especially through technology driven communication, I am really glad to be a part of this channel for connecting citizens to policy makers. It has always been my desire to create change for better society and volunteering for this initiative is my small contribution towards fulfilling the greater vision of our current leadership for a ‘digitally empowered’ India.”

Mithun VijaykumarMithun Vijaykumar:
“Sociologists say that each and every citizen should do his/her part in the development of a nation. It’s true, but an effective communication between a common man and the higher authorities is essential for the real development to take place. By volunteering for MyGov I have learned that actionable information provided by the users are given sufficient importance and are forwarded to the concerned departments. The platform which is open to all Indian citizens is a greater step towards Nation building. Volunteering for MyGov is a pleasant experience.”

    Pranaam Shree Narendra Bhai Modi Ji. I suggest cashless and fraud-proof transaction across the country to stop the evil of all kinds from spreading across the country. A cash Debit of Re.1 OR Rs.1 Cr. We all human beings uphold the grudge against the person who withholds the hard earned money.
    So, from railway tickets to bus tickets, to any govt. fees, tea, coffee, local market transactions from village to city should be promoted.

    THERE SHOULD BE A COORDINATION BETWEEN GOVERNMENT AND VOLUNTEER. THEY BESIDE OTHER ACTIVITY THEY SHOULD INFORM GOVERNMENT ABOUT DIFFERENT TYPE PROBLEMS OF CITIZEN AND GOVERNMENT CONSIDERING THE CORRECTNESS SHOULD ACT TO SOLVE.DOING SO CITIZEN’S FEELING ON GOVERNMENT ACTIVENESS WOULD BECOME MORE AND STRONG AND GOVERNMENT WILL GET GRASS ROOT LEVEL INFORMATION FAST.FURTHER IF GOVERNMENT OFFICER ARE NOT DELIVERING THEIR PROPER SERVICE TO THE CITIZEN GOVERNMENT WILL GET SUCH INFORMATION FAST.
