Nayi Disha is a platform to bring together Indians who wish to make India prosperous. The core objective is to unite citizens on an agenda of freedom, equality and wealth creation. Nayi Disha’s 5 Prosperity Principles and 5 Starting Solutions will usher in a new model for governance and politics in India.
Nayi Disha is an initiative by Rajesh Jain, technology entrepreneur and a pioneer in Asia’s dotcom revolution. Our members include people from all walks and age of life – students, businessmen, lawyers, economists, farmers, and young professionals.
Nayi Disha believes that poverty is not India’s destiny. Our vision is to bring lasting prosperity to Indians, not in generations, but between two elections. Nayi Disha’s mission is to put an end to actions that destroy wealth and initiate actions that enable widespread wealth creation, thus making Indians prosperous.
We are guided by the following Prosperity Principles:
1. Liberty
2. Non-discrimination
3. Non-interference
4. Limited government
5. Decentralisation
Nayi Disha’s two key solutions – returning ₹1 lakh per year per family and capping taxes at 10% – aggregate to an annual benefit of about ₹1.5 lakh for every household.
Besides putting more money in the hands of people, these initiatives will also create a safety net for every Indian family, eliminate poverty, scale up job creation, reverse the growth of government, and empower Indians to create wealth. This money will come from reducing government waste and inefficiency, selling or shutting down unnecessary government enterprises and by deploying unused and under-utilised resources. The 10% cap on taxation will ensure that there are enough revenues to support government’s need, but not its greed.
Yes, he did. With the sweeping mandate that the BJP won in 2014, it had been expected by many that the new government would make fundamental changes to reverse nearly seven decades of bad policy and put India on the path to prosperity. While many initiatives have been taken, most of the same old policies that had doomed India to being a poor nation have continued under the new government. Rajesh realised that all existing parties in India are the same and do not have any solutions to uplift people. More than new rulers, we need a paradigm shift in rules that govern the country.
Throughout his career, Rajesh has maintained utmost integrity and has never been accused of corruption. He is a self-made man who believes in hard work.
Rajesh understands what is needed for businesses to grow to make India prosperous and create jobs for millions of Indian youth. Through Nayi Disha, his journey as an entrepreneur continues, but now in a different domain – nation building. He strongly believes that India needs transformation and every one of us must be the political entrepreneurs in that revolution.
No, Nayi Disha is not affiliated with any political party. It is a new and independent platform for forward-thinking Indians who are fed up with the current state of politics in the country. We will remain an open and democratic political platform. Our strength comes from our members and candidates, fresh thinking and technology, not political alliances.
If you are not happy with the current political scenario, join us.
Like you, millions of people think that their single vote cannot make a difference. However, governments in India are often formed with less than one-third majority of voters.
In the 2014 general elections, for instance, 28.7 crore people out of 83.4 crore eligible voters did not vote. And BJP, the winning party, got only 17 crore votes. Imagine if these 28.7 crore people had voted, the outcome of the election could have been very different.
Most people do not vote because they think their one vote cannot change outcomes. As the data shows, it is not true. If we all voted together for change, no one can stop us from freeing India from the shackles of vile politicians and move the country forward.
We believe that there is a leader in many of us. While we all want to see change around us, we often don’t know how to go about it. Nayi Disha provides an open platform that allows the organisation of motivated individuals at all levels.
Have you ever felt that your one voice cannot make a difference, or that your choice does not change outcome or policies, or that politics is dirty forcing you to stay away from politics? Nayi Disha offers a new model of politics and governance for you to make real change.
You must join Nayi Disha if you believe that poverty is not our destiny. And if you believe that we, the people of India, have the important duty of making India a prosperous and modern nation.
If you believe in our prosperity principles and wish to be a part of this change, be a part of Nayi Disha.

India is one of the richest countries in terms of mineral wealth and other natural resources.
Analysts have estimated the total mineral wealth of the country to be more than ₹ 5011 lakh crore. Nayi Disha estimates that the government of India holds unused public lands over ₹ 300 lakh crore. Even if we take a very conservative value of 20 % of our mineral wealth i.e. ₹ 1000 lakh crore, we have public wealth of ₹ 1300 crore. This is sufficient to pay every Indian family ₹ 1 lakh every year for at least 50 years.
The monetisation of public wealth and its subsequent return to the people is more a question of political will than that of the legal mechanism. As far as legal provisions and policies are concerned, the monetisation of public wealth would not be hard to administer for an elected government.
As per the ‘Household Survey on India’s Citizen Environment & Consumer Economy’ in 2016, 99% of Indian households already have a bank account. Given the linking with Aadhar, we can identify individual account holders to ensure seamless public wealth return.
It is not a jumla. Nayi Disha will work towards returning the wealth that rightfully belongs to Indians, that is currently unused, misused or abused by the government. Rajesh Jain is a successful businessman who is investing his resources and time for a prosperous India. Nayi Disha team has done extensive research on the issue and has a detailed plan with respect to monetising public wealth and returning it, we are not making empty promises in the air.
The political parties and leaders in power have little or no incentive to change India’s direction and thus have largely kept India on the same path of poverty and exploitation, like the colonial rulers. Driven mainly by an intent to stay in power, they have kept Indians dependent on government hand-outs and quotas in exchange for votes.
Nayi Disha will use its prosperity principles which no government has tried before to fulfil its promise of making Indians prosperous. To a Nayi Disha supporter or leader, power is the means, not the goal.
Nayi Disha plans to strengthen the rule of law and establish clear, simple rules for governing the country. Nayi Disha also plans to reduce burdensome requirements on starting of schools and healthcare facilities. With starting up of more service providers and additional money in the hands of the people from public wealth return, everyone can get a quality education and basic healthcare.
Given Rajesh Jain’s past support for the BJP and the PM, some have written to ask if Rajesh has turned against them.
Rajesh is not against the BJP government, any political party or any individual. Rajesh has never had a negative agenda, political or otherwise, and he does not have one now. Rajesh is an entrepreneur, not a politician.
Nayi Disha does not believe in wasting time fighting against any particular political party or person.
Our goal is the positive goal of enabling the changes needed to make India a prosperous nation. We will unconditionally with everyone who works for that same goal. We are focused on changing the system, and the political processes that have become dysfunctional and obsolete. Our job is to enable positive change, to transform, and to improve whatever we can.
As Rajesh has continually stressed, we are not against any one, least of all against Mr. Modi. Rajesh’s agenda remains the same today as it was when he actively worked for years to do what he could to help Mr. Modi win in 2014.
However different people believe in different means to various ends. We are convinced that heavy-handed government control of the people and the economy are not the right means to India’s progress. Those have consistently failed not just in India but everywhere they have been tried. They have to be replaced by other means.
Nayi Disha’s agenda is India’s prosperity, and we are an ally of anyone who has the goal.

More than 30 crore Indians live in extreme poverty. The median income of an Indian family is only ₹ 1.2 lakh per year. Return of ₹ 1 lakh to every family every year will double the income of about half of all Indian families. This is a considerable sum of money for most Indians and could help them transform their lives.
Moreover, other reforms brought by Nayi Disha will create job opportunities and will make doing business much easier for all entrepreneurs, big and small.

Firstly, no state government should give away a valuable resource like land free of cost to industries. The natural resources of the state belong to the people and by giving them away for free, governments are robbing us of our rightful share. Secondly, right now there are no buyers of public resources in India due to lack of rule of law and burdensome regulations. When people have wealth and it is easy to do business, individuals and companies will start demanding the resources to use them productively.
Foreign nationals and companies should be treated equally with Indians when it comes to buying of property in India. Our objective is to have the maximum return for the people of India. That said, there would be a few exceptions to the rule in resources involving national security.
As already stated, India has public wealth that could last for over 50 years if distributed at ₹ 1 lakh per year for each family. After just a few decades of this wealth, we will not need any redistribution or welfare programs as Indians would be rich and prosperous to determine their own destiny.
Nayi Disha aims to provide public wealth return of ₹ 1 Lakh every year for every household in the country, and by bringing in thorough reforms that will help in increasing economic opportunities available to the poor. This will help break the vicious cycle of poverty due to lack of opportunities, and lack of social and economic capital, that many Indians are currently trapped in.
Nayi Disha recognises that in addition to public wealth return, millions of jobs are needed for Indian youth. These jobs cannot be generated unless people have the capital to start businesses and a business-friendly environment. Nayi Disha plans to liberalise the economy so that people can start more businesses and create jobs. Additionally, people can use the money for learning employment skills or education needed to get a good job.

Nayi Disha is an initiative by Rajesh Jain. Our members include people from all walks and age of life – students, businessmen, lawyers, economists, farmers, and young professionals. To grow, the movement needs several leaders, champions and volunteers. We are looking for people who can lead and take our country on the path to prosperity.
