Crowdfunding Initiative

Less than two years ago, I ran a crowd-funding drive and found close to 1,000 generous supporters. I can't thank them enough. I now have a number of new media initiatives for which I seek your support once again at https://www.ourdemocracy.in/Campaign/paranjoy

We published and wrote “Loose Pages: Court Cases That Could Have Shaken India – Recalling the Birla-Sahara Papers and Kalikho Pul’s Suicide Note.”

The books and websites on the Rafale scandal, Gautam Adani’s corporate empire and the questionable activities of Facebook/WhatsApp in India have already been published and are being further developed.

The work that has already been done thanks to your support can be found on www.paranjoy.in

  1. Can we together curb disinformation that distorts democracy during elections? We have a book in English and Hindi titled: “The Real Face of Facebook in India: How social media have become a propaganda weapon and disseminator of disinformation and falsehood” and “Facebook Ka Asli Chehra.” Visit our website: www.theaslifacebook.com
  2. Can we curb corruption in high places? Visit our website: www.therafalescandal.com. You can download a booklet on the Rafale scandal free in nine languages: Bengali, English, Gujarati, Hindi, Kannada, Marathi, Malayalam, Tamil and Telugu. Watch out for Ravi Nair’s book "Flying Lies".
  3. Can we constrain crony capitalism? Visit our website: www.theafiles.in. Watch out for our forthcoming book on the "Incredible Rise and Rise of Gautam Adani". And our new book and website on the GIFT City scandal.

Please note that you can contribute only in Indian Rupees. If you wish to contribute in foreign currency you may do so directly to my bank account and specify that the money sent  is a "gift" from you to me. Details of my bank account follow. If, for whatever reason, you wish to contribute directly to me by electronic transfer of funds or by cheque and not go through the crowdfunding platform, here is the relevant information for you.
