How do we do it?
Right to Information is a potent tool to seek transparency and accountability. We believe in seeking vital information through RTI and by filing Public Interest Litigations to expose the lacunae and then take up the issues with authorities concerned. We have filed several RTIs to bring out the truth and yawning gaps between the promise and delivery in front of the people.
Our Team
Jeetendra Ghadge
It was his first-hand experience of victimization that fuelled Jeetendra Ghadge a decade back to raise his voice against the injustice around him. Back then, RTI was his sole weapon. However, enroute he realised that RTI alone can’t answer all issues. Help of other pillars of democracy too is equally needed. Thus was born ‘The Young Whistleblowers Foundation’ with Jeetendra as its founder member.
Jeetendra has always believed in fixing responsibilities to fix issues and not just tokenism like sweeping streets or cleaning beaches under the name of social service. He prefers making the responsible authority for sweeping and cleaning accountable instead of holding the broom himself. His work has undoubtedly made a big difference when it comes to issues like farmers’ suicide, anti-corruption bureau, police department, civic issues, deforestation, economic offences, etc. Despite being harassed by the authorities he had exposed, he has remained defiant and continues his work for a greater good.
