Dear Shri Chandrasekharji,

 

Ø  Congratulations on this great initiative to launch DIGITAL SANSAD , with the explicit objective to

      BRING MPs and CITIZEN together by “ covering the entire spectrum of functioning of the Indian

     Parliament “

 

In this context, I urge you to examine my following suggestions :

 

[ A ]…… PLATFORM

 

      #    That platform must provide the citizen with following “ interfaces “ using any of which , she can view

            the proceedings of the Parliament and be able to “ interact “  with the MPs :

 

Ø  A TV Channel

Ø  A Web Portal ( accessible using smartphone / tablet / AR-VR glasses )

Ø  A Mobile App

            Use of “ Immersive Tech “ should enable a citizen to get a feeling that she is actually “ sitting “ in the

            hall of the Parliament { Metaverse ? }

 

[ B ]….. CITIZEN FEEDBACK

   

      #  A citizen should be able to send ( email / sms / whatsapp ) any message to any MP . These messages

          can only be a question or a constructive comment ( AI software must weed-out any abusive messages )

          You may want to consider the following U / I               :    Influence Policy Makers         

      

          Source-code for this, can be freely downloaded from     :     B2BmessageBlaster.com

 

 

            When any “ voting “ is taking place, citizen should be able to register their own “ Vote “ ( in favour /

          against any given bill ) through Mobile App. Of course, the results of such a “ CITIZEN VOTE “ will not

          be displayed until all MPs have cast their own votes first. This ( intentional ) delay is to ensure that the

          MPs are not getting biased by what the citizen think about any given resolution / bill

 

[ C ]     MP “ Janam Kundli “

 

       #  Web Portal must display comprehensive data about each MP ( past and present ) including his

           Utilization of MPLAD funds

          

 

[ D ]    Performance of MPs in Parliament

         #  Live telecast / searchable database of entire proceedings ( audio – video search ) but no

             download

 

[ E ]    “ Work from Anywhere “  for MPs

         #   MPs are required to be travelling in their respective constituencies to meet the citizen for listening to

              their problems and to get feedback on the progress of “ Development Projects “ . Hence, on many

              occasions, an MP may not be able to attend to an ongoing Parliament Session in person

              I urge you to ensure that the DIGITAL SANSAD platform enables such travelling MPs to participate in

              the Sansad proceedings from ANYWHERE

 

 

Virtual Parliament : a COVID bye-product ?................... [ 02 June 2020 ]

 

Extract :

 

Congratulations , Mr Naidu and Mr Birla :

 

 

For this “Out of the Box “ thinking to turn COVID threat into an opportunity , by streamlining the running of the Lok Sabha / Rajya Sabha sessions

 

With Virtual Parliament sessions, you can do following :

 

 

       Ø  Online broadcast of Virtual Session through a Mobile App ( LokRaj ?  )

 

       Ø  Receive Questions / Answers / Notices , online ( as being done already )

 

       Ø  Decide ( and control ),  WHO will speak , WHEN and for HOW LONG .

 

       Ø  Display these “ Speaking Schedules “ on the Mobile App with a provision for the viewers to cast their “

           Ratings “ online / instantly , as each speaker delivers his / her speech. Dynamically display “ No of Raters “

           and “ Rating Score ( 1 to 5 ) “ .

 

           Such an “ Instant Feedback “ will dramatically improve , not only the behaviour of each Member of

           Parliament, but also improve the “ Relevance “ of his talk !

 

      Ø  Turn-off the member’s mike if he refuses to stop or starts shouting / abusing

 

      Ø  No question of anyone speaking “out of turn “ or rushing to the well of the house !

 

      Ø  Bar unruly members from attending a VIRTUAL SESSION

 

      Ø  Display ( as in case of Augmented Reality – AR ), following record of an MP as he is speaking :

 

    #   Attendance percentage  /  Punctuality

    #   No of questions asked

    #  Number of minutes spoken during the session

 

      Ø  Just before the voting starts on any Bill , enable the Members of Parliament to receive “ Instructions ( really

         , feedback from citizen who voted for him / her ) “, as to how voters want him to vote ( “for “ or “against “

           the bill ) , as outlined at :

    VotersWill  ………………………………….[  03  Nov  2018  ]

 

Ø   Enable every Member to receive Online Feedback whether his overall performance is so bad that the citizen

     who voted for him , now want him “ Re-called “ , as described at :
