Root out black money from Indian politics

To the heads of all political parties and to PM Modi:

As citizens concerned about the huge amounts of black money in our electoral system coming in via unaccounted donations to political parties, we urge you to adopt total transparency in this regard. All parties need to be investigated and we urge you to amend the laws and rules to ensure that it becomes mandatory for all political parties to record the source and amount of all donations and make this information publicly available.

Root out black money from Indian politics
Delhi has just given a smashing victory to an anti-corruption party opening up a rare opportunity to turn off the tap of dirty money corrupting Indian democracy. Let’s use the moment to make it happen!

Nearly 75% of all major political parties’ income is from undeclared sources -- a major funnel for black money. These parties claim most of their donations are under 20,000 rupees which doesn’t require them to maintain any records.

That's no longer good enough.

The BJP government, still shaken by the Delhi election rout, recognises that the voters’ mood has changed and transparency is non-negotiable. Let’s push for all contributions big or small to be publicly reported by ALL parties.

This could be a gamechanger for Indian democracy. When we reach 500,000 signatures, we'll work with Indian citizen volunteers to deliver the call to the government and heads of all parties. Act now and tell everyone to join.
