Starting March 2009
We the Citizens of India are the Stakeholders of this Collective Responsibility of the 4 pillars of a nation, namely Citizens, Corporate, NGOs & Govt. There are 17 campaigns description given on website People either make their own prog or chose a prog from our prog and take banner from Download section . Do events and send pics. You can see thousands of such pics in activity section. Go through website
www.indiaredefined.org
One point is important that even if we want our rights or make corruption accountable, we ,the citizens have to make our credibility by good works --if we do our duties on different platforms or without any banner, then we may benefit someone but if we, the citizens,NGOs, corporates,other organizations put all our good works on one platform -like INDIA Redefined--that will make Citizens empowered to ask about their rights on their own karmas not on some leaders good karmas,something like masses did on Anna ji;s good works. INDIA Redefined can act like pressure group for corruption if today we dont point out fingers on govt or others and only keep doing activities on this banner--like lots of people understood - see pics on website .There is so much dirt-that we have to make broom strong. Movements against corruption only did Awakening masses or jagrook logon ko for their rights & pointing out corruption. In INDIA Redefined Awakening means-awakened for duties .Till now no Movement has made people awakened for their duties --they say awakening masses only for morcha against someone.It is much easier.
