What does this status mean?

Meaningful delivery has occurred, but the stated commitment is incomplete.

Status describes delivery. Confidence describes how strong the available evidence is.

Original manifesto wording

“We will ensure complete transparency and accountability in the PDS system through village-level vigilance committees.”

Our Assessment

Ahmedabad's official supply-office page lists rural and urban vigilance committees among its PDS functions. That supports an existing oversight mechanism, rather than a new post-election rollout. Current village-wise membership, meeting records, inspections and resolved complaints were not verified across Gujarat. The presence of committees alone cannot establish the promised complete transparency and accountability.

The reasoning behind the verdict

Reviewed

Why partially done?

02 · Strength of evidence

Why medium confidence?

Official or corroborated reporting supports related delivery, but coverage or the promised expansion is incompletely documented.

What would help us reassess?

The documents that could clarify delivery of this commitment.

  • Village-wise committee coverage, meetings, inspection findings and grievance outcomes
