Mygov India

MyGov was launched by Prime Minister Narendra Modi on 26th July 2014, just two months after he assumed office as Prime Minister, as the principle citizen engagement platform of Government of India, giving people the opportunity to work towards Surajya through their ideas, suggestions and grass root level contribution. As enunciated by Prime Minister in many speeches, including in his speech from the Red Fort on 15th August 2015, MyGov aims to promote 'Jan Bhagidari' or participative governance. Since its launch more than 3.43 million citizens have become a part of this mass movement. Through Group Discussions, Open Forum discussions, Tasks, Polls, Blogs, Contests, Talks, and other regular features, MyGov empowers the citizens to become an active participant in policy making at the national level. Policy ideas and suggestions for the General and Rail Budget for both 2015-16 and 2016-17, Smart City Mission, discussions for framing the New Education Policy, and the debate on Net Neutrality have been some of the prominent discussions in which a large number of citizens have participated. Logos and slogans for such prominent national programs such as Swachh Bharat, Digital India, Jan Dhan, etc have also been sourced through MyGov. Every month, Prime Minister Modi also seeks ideas and suggestions for his Mann ki Baat Radio Broadcast through the MyGov Open Forum and Phone in Toll Free Number (1800-11-7800). To reach the citizens in the various dimensions of a participative process, number of MyGov micro-sites are available for the citizens to engage and interact. 1.
