Why a Manifesto?

"A platform without specifics is a promise without a signature."

Most parties publish slogans. We publish a blueprint. Every topic in this manifesto carries a stated problem, a proposed mechanism, a measurable outcome, and a timeline. Nothing is decorative.

This document is designed to be expanded. Topics are branches; subtopics are leaves. As new evidence emerges, as crises shift, as India changes — this manifesto changes with it. Version history is public.

Hold us to every word.

How to read this document:


Each of the four pillars contains multiple Topics (major policy domains). Each topic expands into Subtopics (specific issue areas). Each subtopic contains named policies with descriptions, targets, and timelines.

Environment
& Climate.

India breathes some of the most toxic air on earth. Its rivers carry industrial sewage. Its coasts face displacement. Its farmers watch monsoons collapse. This pillar treats environmental policy not as an afterthought but as the foundational condition of every other right — because no economy, education system, or court of law functions on a dying planet.

1.1 Air Pollution & Atmospheric Quality
+
1.1.1Industrial Emission Standards
+
Policy
Automated Clean Stack Act
Mandate Continuous Emission Monitoring Systems (CEMS) on all industrial stacks above 50MW. Implement an Automatic Penalty System (like traffic cameras) where sustained breaches automatically trigger financial penalties and eventual factory shutdowns, eliminating the need for manual, corruption-prone inspections.
Target: 40% reduction in industrial PM2.5 by 2030 Timeline: 2032
Policy
Heavy Industry Transition Scheme
Phase out coal-fired kilns in cement and steel production by 2033. Utilize a blended finance scheme: 40% public grant, 40% green bond, 20% industry contribution. Set binding emission intensity targets aligned with the EU Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM).
Target: 35% intensity cut Timeline: 2030
Policy
NEVA & Satellite Auditing
End self-reporting. Establish the National Emissions Verification Authority (NEVA). Instead of relying just on ground teams, utilize ISRO satellite data and atmospheric modeling to cross-verify industrial emission reports. Criminal liability for falsifying emissions data.
Target: 100% third-party audit coverage by 2032
1.1.2Vehicular Emissions & Urban Transport
+
Policy
Zero-Emission Vehicle (ZEV) Mandate
Force automakers to ensure a minimum percentage of their production is zero-emission. Mandate zero-emission sales for all new 2W/3W by 2028. Support this with a ₹15,000 scrappage incentive and establish 50,000 public charging points in Tier 1 & 2 cities under a PPP model.
Target: 80% EV share in 2W sales by 2028
Policy
Freight & Public Fleet Electrification
Establish a national fleet leasing body to procure electric and hydrogen fuel-cell city buses, eliminating capex barriers for state transport authorities. Initiate a pilot program to electrify heavy-duty inter-city freight corridors. Retrain displaced diesel mechanics as EV technicians.
Target: 1.2 lakh zero-emission buses Timeline: 2031
Policy
High-Density Transit Architecture
Invest in interconnected multi-modal hubs railways connecting states, subways connecting city cores, and electric buses/trams for satellite towns. Cap transit fares at a heavily subsidized baseline rather than making it entirely free, ensuring funds for state-of-the-art maintenance
Target: 100% of the population relying on public transport Timeline: 2036-39
1.1.3Stubble & Agricultural Burning
+
Policy
Crop Diversification Guarantee (The Root Fix)
The criminalization of stubble burning without viable alternatives is a failure of policy, not of farmers. Establish a ₹8,000 crore Biomass Conversion Fund to subsidise Happy Seeder machines, biogas digesters, and paddy straw pelletisation units at the village level. Pay farmers ₹2,500 per acre to not burn — funded by a cess on pesticide manufacturers. Offer a guaranteed, highly lucrative Minimum Support Price (MSP) and assured procurement for alternative, low-water winter crops (oilseeds, pulses, millets) in Punjab and Haryana. If they don't plant late-stage paddy, they don't have stubble to burn.
Target: 90% reduction in Punjab-Haryana burning by 2032
Policy
MNREGA EXTENTION & Biomass Value Chain Integration
Employing people under the 100 day guaranteed work to prevent stubble burning. Establish a ₹8,000 crore Biomass Conversion Fund to subsidize the off-take of straw. Fund village-level biogas digesters and paddy straw pelletization units. Turn agricultural waste into an economic commodity that power plants are legally mandated to buy.
Target: Increase in seasonal employment by 2031.
1.1.4Construction Dust & Urban Particulates
+
Policy
Circular Construction & Enclosed Sites.
Mandate strict Japanese-style acoustic and dust-containment scaffolding for all urban projects above 500 sq meters. Furthermore, legally require 20% recycled Construction & Demolition (C&D) waste to be used in all new government infrastructure projects to create a market for rubble.
Target: CONSTRUCTION CLAUSE OF 2034
1.1.5Indoor Air Quality Standards
+
Policy
Ban Air Purifiers for Ministries.
Ban the use of government-funded HEPA air purifiers in the offices and residences of Members of Parliament, MLAs, and top-tier bureaucrats. If the public breathes toxic air, the legislature breathes it too.
Target: 2029
Policy
Increase green cover throughout the city through redevelopment (Part of Redevelopment).
70:30 ratio of green cover throughout the city to concrete, making sure we're not living in concrete jungles.
Target: ENTIRE REdev PROJECT OF 2036
1.1.6National Clean Air Mission Revision
+
Policy
Raise Awareness.
Integrate Pollution in Daily life for children as a separate subject, not carrying marks upon theory that they memorise but rather, showing them through state-of-the-art pollution cleaning facilities to raise their awareness as a part of curriculum and raise their interest to innovate irl problems.
Target: 2030
Policy
Create a complete transparent, accountable and digital platform for regulation of AQI.
Solve real world problems, measure, track and account where diseases are flaring up through AI-regulated automatic systems. Integrate a platform to raise voices against breaches of the previous manifesto clauses.
Target: 2029 Q3
1.2Water Systems — Rivers, Groundwater & Sanitation
+
1.2.1River Rejuvenation & Industrial Discharge
+
Policy
Zero Liquid Discharge Mandate
The textile dyeing industry discharges over 500 million litres of untreated effluent daily into Indian rivers. Mandate Zero Liquid Discharge (ZLD) systems at all textile processing units by 2028, with a 60% capital subsidy for MSME units. Blacklist non-compliant units from government procurement contracts. Name and shame polluters in a public registry with satellite imagery proof.
Target: ZLD compliance at 12,000 textile units Timeline: 2028
Policy
Sewage Treatment Plant Infrastructure Gap Fund
India treats less than 30% of its municipal sewage. Close the infrastructure gap through a dedicated ₹1.2 lakh crore 10-year fund. Priority: cities on the Ganga, Yamuna, and Godavari. Bind state releases to construction milestones — not promises. Use modular decentralized STPs for towns below 1 lakh population. Create 80,000 skilled wastewater technician jobs.
Target: 75% sewage treatment coverage by 2033

Society &
Justice.

Caste violence, gender discrimination, minority marginalisation, broken prisons, and access to healthcare — these are not fringe concerns. They are the majority experience of Indians. This pillar proposes a wholesale rethinking of the social contract: from punitive criminal law to restorative justice, from tokenistic inclusion to structural equality.

2.1Caste, Discrimination & Anti-Atrocity Enforcement
+
2.1.1SC/ST Atrocities Act — Fast-Track Courts
+
Policy
Dedicated Atrocity Fast-Track Court System
As of 2025, over 50,000 cases under the SC/ST (Prevention of Atrocities) Act remain pending in Indian courts — many for over a decade. Establish 500 dedicated fast-track courts within 18 months. Each court to be staffed with trained sensitised judges and public prosecutors. Mandate trial completion within 12 months. Victim protection and witness relocation mandatory from FIR registration.
Target: 90% cases disposed within 12 months by 2029
Policy
Atrocity Compensation Reform
Current compensation under the SC/ST Act is derisory and infrequently paid. Increase minimum interim compensation to ₹2 lakh payable within 30 days of FIR registration — before conviction. Establish a state-level compensation disbursement authority independent of police. Create a reintegration support programme for displaced families.
Target: 30-day compensation disbursement compliance: 95%
[ + ADD POLICY ]
2.1.2Manual Scavenging — Total Abolition
+
Policy
Mechanical Sanitation Mandate & Rehabilitation
Manual scavenging remains illegal under the 2013 Act yet continues openly due to lack of mechanisation and enforcement. Mandate 100% mechanical sewer cleaning in all municipalities by 2027 with criminal liability for municipal commissioners in non-compliant cities. Fund an alternative livelihood programme — ₹3 lakh per displaced worker plus 2-year vocational training stipend. Create a National Rehabilitation Registry.
Target: Zero manual scavenging by 2027

2.2Gender Justice — Violence, Pay & Representation
+
2.2.1Sexual Violence — Investigation & Prosecution Reform
+
Policy
One-Stop Crisis Centres — Every District
A survivor of sexual violence should not have to navigate 7 government departments to receive medical care, legal aid, shelter, and police support. Establish a fully funded One-Stop Crisis Centre (OSCC) in every one of India's 780 districts by 2029. Each centre to offer 24-hour medical examination, an on-call magistrate for statement recording, temporary shelter, legal aid lawyers, and trauma counselling under one roof.
Target: 780 OSCCs by 2029
Policy
Mandatory Gender Sensitisation — Police & Judiciary
End victim-blaming in courtrooms and police stations through mandatory 40-hour annual gender sensitisation training for all police officers and judges. Enforce via performance review linkage. Introduce anonymous complaint mechanisms against officers who discourage filing of FIRs. Track and publish district-level FIR registration rates for gender violence.

Governance
Reform.

India's judiciary is clogged. Its legislature is dysfunctional. Its bureaucracy is captured. Its elections are money-soaked. This pillar doesn't tinker — it restructures. From abolishing colonial-era laws to establishing an independent constitutional court model, from proportional representation to real-time campaign finance disclosure, we treat governance itself as the policy problem.

3.1Judicial Reform — Courts, Appointments & Independence
+
3.1.1Judicial Appointments Commission — Collegium Overhaul
+
Policy
National Judicial Appointments Commission — Transparent, Inclusive
The current Collegium system is opaque, unaccountable, and effectively a self-perpetuating club of senior judges. Replace it with a reformed National Judicial Appointments Commission (NJAC) with a constitutionally guaranteed majority of non-judicial members including a retired civil servant, two eminent jurists elected by the Bar Council, and two representatives from civil society chosen by a parliamentary committee. All deliberations to be minuted and made public within 6 months. Recusal rules for conflicts of interest to be statutory.
Target: NJAC constituted by 2027
Policy
Diversity Benchmarks in High Court & Supreme Court Appointments
India's higher judiciary remains overwhelmingly upper-caste, male, and urban. By 2030, require that all High Court appointments achieve 33% women, 20% SC/ST/OBC, and geographical diversity across different bar associations. NJAC to publish an annual diversity audit. If targets are not met, Parliament to formally question the Commission's justification.
Target: 33% women judges in High Courts by 2030
[ + ADD POLICY ]
3.1.2Judicial Vacancies — Emergency Filling Programme
+
Policy
Zero Vacancy Target — 36-Month Programme
India has 50 million pending court cases. 25% of sanctioned judicial positions are vacant. Fill all sanctioned High Court and district court positions within 36 months through a national judicial recruitment drive with fast-track NJAC clearances. Expand the sanctioned strength of district courts by 40% to match case filing rates. Judicial infrastructure — courtrooms, IT, staff — to be funded by a dedicated Judicial Infrastructure Cess.

Fixing the Anti-Defection Law — Speaker Independence
The Anti-Defection Law is routinely manipulated through partisan Speakers who delay disqualification of defectors to benefit ruling parties. Transfer disqualification powers from the Speaker to an independent Election Tribunal with a 60-day mandatory decision deadline. Speaker elections to be conducted by secret ballot to reduce partisan capture. Prohibit Speakers from contesting elections immediately after their tenure.

Public Funding of Elections — Matching Grant Model
Following the Supreme Court's 2024 striking down of Electoral Bonds, India's campaign finance remains opaque. Introduce a state-funded elections model: all parties with >1% vote share in any state receive matching grants of ₹5 for every ₹1 raised from individual donors capped at ₹10,000 per donor per year. Corporate donations to political parties to be permanently banned. Real-time digital disclosure of all donations above ₹500 within 48 hours.

India's sedition law was written by the British to imprison freedom fighters. It has been used against journalists, farmers, students, and activists who criticise government policy. Repeal Section 124A IPC entirely. Simultaneously repeal the UAPA's overreaching preventive detention provisions that function as a substitute sedition mechanism.

Economy &
Livelihood.

India's GDP growth is not reaching its workers. Real wages stagnate while billionaire wealth compounds. The gig economy has no floor. Farmers are trapped in debt. The informal sector — 90% of the workforce — has no safety net. This pillar builds a floor beneath every working Indian and a ceiling on the structural extraction that keeps them there.

4.1Labour Rights — Wages, Gig Work & Unions
+
4.1.1National Minimum Wage — Living Wage Calculation
+
Policy
₹500/Day Universal Minimum Wage
India's current minimum wages are set by states and are largely unenforceable. Set a single universal National Floor Wage of ₹500/day (approximately ₹13,000/month) by 2028, calculated against a basket of 12 goods and services including nutrition, rent, healthcare, and education — updated annually by an independent Wages Commission. Enforce through mobile-first digital wage verification linked to Aadhaar-free worker IDs. Impose criminal penalties on repeat violators.
Target: ₹500/day minimum by 2028
Policy
Gig Worker Social Security Act
India's 15 million gig workers — delivery riders, cab drivers, freelancers — have no employment protection, no paid leave, no PF, and no insurance. Classify platform workers as dependent contractors entitled to proportional social security: platforms to contribute 8% of gross worker earnings to a portble individual worker account covering health insurance, accident cover, and retirement corpus. Workers to retain ownership of their ratings and work history data.

MSP as Legal Entitlement — The Swaminathan Formula
India's 140 million farming households have no guarantee of receiving the Minimum Support Price for their crops. Enshrine MSP as a legal right for all 23 crops covered by CACP — calculated as C2+50% (comprehensive cost plus 50% profit margin as recommended by the Swaminathan Commission).
