About

Your Voice. Our Responsibility.

Jan Darpan is a civic issue-reporting platform for Kanpur. It gives every neighbourhood a live civic health score, and gives every citizen a direct way to report, verify, and track what needs fixing — turning scattered complaints into a measurable, collective effort.

Transparency

Every score, report, and status change is visible to the whole community.

Verification

Reports are confirmed by fellow citizens before they carry real weight.

Local action

Data is only useful if it leads somewhere — every issue is tracked to resolution.

How the civic score works

Each area is scored 0–100 across eight categories — roads, cleanliness, street lighting, water, greenery, traffic, accessibility, and public services. The overall score is the average across categories, and it moves as issues get reported, confirmed by the community, and resolved by local action.

Why this matters for Kanpur

Municipal grievance systems often feel like a one-way channel — you report something and hear nothing back. Jan Darpan makes the whole loop visible: what was reported, who confirmed it, what changed, and how the neighbourhood's score responded. That visibility is the point — it turns individual frustration into a shared, trackable civic record.
