Account Registration
You may register using your email address or via a supported social login (Google, Facebook, or X/Twitter). By creating an account, you agree to:
- Provide accurate, current, and complete information during registration.

We reserve the right to suspend or permanently terminate accounts that violate these Terms or that are found to be operating in a fraudulent or abusive manner.
Platform Purpose
The platform is designed for positive, fact-based feedback. Ratings must reflect a citizen's genuine experience with their elected representative's work, public service delivery, communication, and fulfillment of responsibilities.
Naadi Leaders does not endorse any political party, alliance, or candidate. All content on this platform is user-generated and moderated for quality and appropriateness.
User Conduct
As a registered user, you agree to use Naadi Leaders in a responsible, respectful, and lawful manner. You agree to:
- Submit ratings and feedback based on your genuine, first-hand experience or well-documented knowledge of a representative's work.
- Respect the dignity of all elected representatives, fellow users, and the democratic process, even when providing critical feedback.
- Use the platform only for its intended purpose of civic participation and accountability.
- Not attempt to manipulate ratings through bulk submissions, automated tools, coordinated campaigns, or multiple accounts.
- Not use the platform for any commercial, political fundraising, or advertising purpose.
Ratings & Naadis
A "Naadi" is a citizen's rating of an elected representative. Each registered user is permitted to submit up to 5 Naadis per week. This limit exists to maintain the integrity of our rating system. Abuse of this system — including using multiple accounts or automated tools to circumvent limits — will result in account suspension.
- Each Naadi is reviewed by our moderation team before being published.
- Ratings that do not meet our community standards will be rejected or marked as spam.
- Once approved, a Naadi contributes to the public score of the respective MLA or MP.
- You may rate the same representative again in a subsequent month after your previous rating expires.
- Ratings of 1–2 stars (indicating below-average performance) are treated as constructive feedback and are shared privately with the relevant MLA office. They are not shown publicly to prevent misuse.
Prohibited Content
The following types of content are strictly prohibited on Naadi Leaders:
- Is defamatory, false, misleading, or fabricated.
- Contains hate speech, casteist slurs, religious discrimination, or threatens violence.
- Reveals private personal information (home address, phone numbers, family details) of any representative.
- Is sexually explicit, obscene, or grossly offensive.
- Constitutes political propaganda or is paid for by a political party, campaign, or lobbyist.
- Infringes on any third-party copyright, trademark, or intellectual property rights.
- Contains spam, phishing links, or malware.
- Is submitted by automated bots, scripts, or any non-human actor.
- Violates any applicable Indian law, including the IT Act 2000 and the Representation of the People Act.
Violations may result in immediate account termination and, where required by law, reporting to appropriate authorities.
Content Moderation
All Naadis are subject to review by our moderation team before being published. We reserve the right to approve, reject, edit, or remove any rating or feedback at our sole discretion. Moderation decisions are final, though you may contact us if you believe your content was incorrectly removed.
Users who repeatedly submit content that violates our guidelines may receive a warning flag on their account, have their voting privileges suspended, or have their account permanently banned. Warnings are issued at the discretion of the moderation team.
Intellectual Property
All platform content — including the Naadi Leaders name, logo, design, code, and aggregated rating data — is the intellectual property of Naadi Leaders and is protected under applicable Indian and international intellectual property law.
By submitting a Naadi, you grant Naadi Leaders a non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide licence to publish, display, aggregate, and use your rating data (anonymised where appropriate) to fulfil the platform's civic purpose. You retain ownership of any text feedback you write.
