One phone, one witness, one report at a time. AWAAZ is a place for citizens to name what they see — a bribe demanded, a duty ignored, a rule bent for cash — and to do it without standing alone.
Not a superhero's promise — a citizen's. This is what we ask of anyone who reports here, and what we commit back.
Every rupee demanded outside the counter, every form stalled for a "favour" — it stays normal only while it stays unspoken. Naming it is the first act of accountability.
Get the facts right, get the details specific, and report in good faith. A careless or false report hurts the next honest one that follows it.
You don't need to be fearless to hold up a phone. You need to decide, once, that this time you won't look away — and know that decision is enough.
Your safety outranks any story. Report anonymously if that's what keeps you safe. A quiet report that reaches the right desk matters more than a viral one that doesn't.
A single voice is easy to dismiss. A wall of dated, specific reports from the same office is what forces a review. That's why this is collective, not individual.
Fill in what you saw. No name or account is needed. Reports are reviewed before they appear on the wall — and for anything that needs real follow-up, also file with your local vigilance authority.
A report only helps if the person who filed it is safe afterwards.
Capture what you can quietly — audio, a photo of a receipt or badge, a note of the time and place. Confrontation escalates risk without adding proof.
You are not obligated to pay a bribe. Asking for a receipt, a written reason for delay, or a supervisor's name is a legitimate response, not a provocation.
Evidence is most useful when it reaches a vigilance body that can act on it — not just social media. See the resources below.
Filing without your name doesn't weaken a report if the facts are specific and dated. Use it whenever you feel it's safer.
