Promises should not disappear
after voting day.
Sarkari Vaade exists to make every public election promise easier for citizens, journalists, researchers and governments to verify — on the same evidence, with the same method, across parties.
1. Why Sarkari Vaade exists
Every election brings a fresh wave of promises — manifestos, guarantees, sankalp patras, pratigya patras. Five years later, very few of those promises are tracked in one place against actual public evidence. People are asked to vote again before anyone has finished checking what was delivered last time.
Sarkari Vaade exists because that cycle only breaks when somebody checks. We track what was promised, what has moved, what is fulfilled, and where public proof is still missing.
2. What accountability means here
Accountability here is not noise, attack or applause. It is a public, repeatable comparison: the original promise wording on one side, the best available public evidence on the other, and a verdict that anyone can challenge with a better source.
The same source and verdict method is applied to every party in every state. We do not soften a verdict because the government is popular, and we do not harden it because the government is unpopular.
3. What citizens should be able to do
A citizen using Sarkari Vaade should be able to:
- Look up any tracked promise from their state and read the original wording.
- See the current public verdict and the evidence behind it.
- Share a clean screenshot of a state's promise scorecard with friends, family or local groups.
- Submit a source, RTI reply or correction — without needing to know any insider terminology.
4. What governments should be able to respond with
If a promise has actually been delivered, the government should be able to point us at the public document, dataset, scheme dashboard, GR or Gazette notification that proves it. The tracker then updates that verdict automatically.
We welcome corrections from any state department. The bar is the same for everyone: a public source that supports the specific claim, not just the topic.
5. Why evidence matters
Promises that are not measured tend to be repeated, election after election. Promises that are measured tend to get delivered — or to be replaced with honest, narrower commitments. Public evidence is the only fair referee here, because it does not depend on whose side anyone is on.
That is why every verdict on Sarkari Vaade has a source trail. Absence of public evidence does not automatically prove non-implementation — it means fulfilment has not been publicly demonstrated through the sources we reviewed.
6. What this is not
- Not a political party project. No party, candidate, NGO, corporate or media house funds this.
- Not a campaign for or against any government.
- Not a place for anonymous claims, WhatsApp forwards or unsourced opinion.
- Not a final report card — verdicts evolve as stronger public evidence becomes available.
How verdicts can be corrected
Sarkari Vaade is evidence-led, not ego-led. If a user submits a stronger official source, newer government data, or proof that our mapping is wrong, we review the claim, update the promise card if needed, and record the change in the changelog.
Submitting evidence never changes a verdict automatically. Every submission becomes a review item that our editorial process evaluates against the existing source trail.
Use the tracker
The vision becomes useful only when you check a promise, submit a source, or share a finding.
