Haqdarshak Where Every Citizen Matters
In essence, we are bridging the information and access gap between citizens and social security schemes (both government and private) using tech and a network of field agents known as ‘Haqdarshaks’ (who are primarily women).
Our ‘Haqdarshaks’ are extensively trained in both government schemes and the on-field implementation of programmes. They are also trained on how to liaise with government officials and bank officials. For the services they provide, they make a commission which makes them financially independent. On our social media channels, we have featured several stories of women who have not only gained financial agency but also an identity after working with us.
We partner with corporates, CSR departments, philanthropies, family offices, and even government offices to design and implement programs on the field. We have been around for almost 8 years. We are present in more than 24 states. We have unlocked benefits worth over INR19,000 crore* for over 65 lakh Indian citizens*. We have multiple digital portals (including two apps, one for citizens and one for our agents) where we have stored information on government schemes in 11 vernacular languages (currently working on re-skinning these apps).
We are also working on scaling our latest offerings, ‘Yojana Cards’ and ‘Yojana Kendras’. These are set to forever alter how citizens access social protection services in India.
