  • Mla Ratings 2016
    A comprehensive & objective rating of the Elected Representatives’ performance MLA RATINGS 2016 Founded in 1998, the PRAJA Foundation is a non-partisan voluntary organisation which empowers the citizen to participate in governance by providing knowledge and enlisting people’s participation. PRAJA aims to provide ways in which the citizen can get politically active and involved beyond the ballot box, thus promoting transparency and accountability. Concerned about the lack of awareness and apathy of the local government among citizens, and hence the disinterest in its functioning, PRAJA seeks change. PRAJA strives to create awareness about the elected representatives and their constituencies. It aims to encourage the citizen to raise his/ her voice and influence the policy and working of the elected representative. This will eventually lead to efforts being directed by the elected representatives towards the specified causes of public interest. The PRAJA Foundation also strives to revive the waning spirit of Mumbai City, and increase the interaction between the citizens and the government. To facilitate this, PRAJA has created www.praja.org, a website where the citizen can not only discuss the issues that their constituencies face, but can also get in touch with their elected representatives directly. The website has been equipped with information such as: the issues faced by the ward, the elected representatives, the responses received and a discussion board, thus allowing an informed interaction between the citizens of the area. PRAJA’s goals are: empowering the citizens, elected representatives & government with facts and creating instruments of change to improve the quality of life of the citizens of India.

    Marching against Imposed Death Anita Dhole Women in Resistance The Research Collective February 2020 The Research Collective, of the Programme for Social Action (PSA), facilitates research around the theoretical framework and practical aspects of development, sustainable alternatives, equitable growth, natural resources, community and people’s rights. Cutting across subjects of economics, law, politics, environment and social sciences, the work bases itself on people’s experiences and community perspectives. Our work aims to reflect ground realities, challenge conventional growth paradigms and generate informed discussions on social, economic, political, environmental and cultural problems. Women in Resistance: Anita Dhole Put together by: Savita Vijayakumar and Kaveri Choudhury Cover Design and Layout: Media Collective (Nikhil Koshy) Published by The Research Collective- PSA February 2020 For private circulation only Suggested Contribution: Rs. 10/- For copies: Programme for Social Action G-46 (First Floor), Green Park (Main) New Delhi-110016 Phone Number: +91-11-26561556 Email: [email protected] Stories, Reflections and Dreams of Women in Resistance Women have always been part of movements and resistance struggles, and historically been instrumental in shaping and strengthening them. In spite of this, often they are seen as mass cadre or witnesses in the struggles, and not as leaders, in most cases. Understanding the why and the how of this scenario is crucial in today’s socio-political context, with the rise of conservative forces across India, trying to assert their power over women who stand up against authority. Within struggles, often a systematic practice can be observed, in which separate women’s groups/wings have been formed with women leading them, be it within trade unions or political parties.
