BallotBoxIndia treats a district's development like a shared fund, and every socio-political innovator — leader, NGO, business, expert, journalist, activist — like a contributor whose impact we try to measure. The scores here are an experiment to tell apart what an innovator actually moved (नेता का हाथ · their real contribution) from what circumstance carried (हालात · the wave).

About Us
Recently, the Department of Science and Technology, Govt. of India has granted Babasaheb Bhimrao Ambedkar University, Lucknow a special project to establish the ‘Centre for Policy Research’ with particular focus on inclusive growth using science, technology and innovation.
