Arvind Kejriwal, head of the Delhi-based NGO Parivartan, has been chosen for this year's Ramon Magsaysay Award for Emergent Leadership.
Kejriwal was selected for the honour for leading the Right to Information movement in India.
The movement created awareness on fighting corruption and making the government more accountable.
Special campaign
Kejriwal organised and led a special RTI campaign from July 1-15, which involved 700 civil society organisations.
As part of the campaign, 1500 volunteers were trained to handle RTI centres in 55 cities, who helped people file applications under the RTI Act.
NDTV was a media partner in the campaign, which saw over 20,000 RTI applications being filed in the 15 days – more than those filed in the eight months since the RTI Act came in force.
Kejriwal will be presented the award, along with five other Asians, in Manila on August 31.
For a cause
Arvind was with the Income Tax department and recently resigned from the government service. He has been a Right to Information campaigner for over four years with Parivartan, an organisation that he heads.Parivartan has been working towards rooting out corruption in government and working towards getting citizens their rights.
One of his earliest successes was exposing the ration shop racket in the slum resettlement of Sundarnagri where the poorest sections of society were not getting their due ration because of the ration shop mafia.
Parivartan was also in the forefront of blocking the Delhi Jal Board's privatisation of water in the capital by exposing the bizarre nature of the scheme.
Arvind passed out from IIT Kharagpur after which he joined the government. He was with the Income Tax department for seven years before opting to work against corruption in governance and bureaucracy
by forming Parivartan.
