Senapati, November 30 2025:
The Youth Rise for Change (YR4C) team has completed 36 village visits, mobilizing communities against corruption and advocating for indigenous rights and transparency in Government projects.
The team covered eight Mao villages, including Shajouba, Makhel, Kaibi, Tobupfii, R Solephe, Chowainu, Pudunamei, and Song Song, shedding light on the JJM and NDB scams.
According to the villagers, the village authorities were not consulted while preparing the water supply DPR, resulting in a huge mismatch between the number of households and the amount sanctioned for functional household tap connections (FHTC) .

"The visits revealed a shocking lack of awareness among village authority members, women, and youth leaders about the water supply projects, enabling PHED and implementing agencies to manipulate data and report work as done", they said. In Makhel village, women took a brave step forward, raising their voices against the unfulfilled promises of the JJM project and the struggles of daily life without access to clean water. "We've been waiting for so long, fetching water from distant sources, struggling to make ends meet," said one woman, her voice shaking with emotion. The people of Makhel, Tobupfii, Pudunamei, and Song Song villages extended their support to YR4C's fight against corruption. "We will no longer be fooled by false promises and corrupt practices.
It's time to take back our rights and demand accountability from our leaders," said a village authority member from Song Song Village, which has taken an exemplary step towards demanding transparency and accountability in implementing JJM projects. YR4C urged all citizens to join the movement against corruption and demand transparency in Government projects.
