About DESH

Democratically Elected System Hackers

We are the world's first software-defined political party, applying engineering principles to governance and democracy.

🎯 Our Mission

To replace career politicians with domain experts who actually understand the systems they're governing. We believe India needs aviation experts running aviation policy, not politicians making uninformed decisions.

🔧 Our Approach

We apply software engineering principles to politics: version control for policies, peer review for legislation, continuous integration for governance, and transparent, auditable decision-making processes.

👥 Our Team

100 founding members who are experts across critical domains - from aviation and software to military and healthcare. Each member brings real-world experience solving complex problems in their field.

🌍 Our Vision

A technocratic democracy where decisions are made based on evidence, expertise, and measurable outcomes rather than political rhetoric and electoral calculations.

Why Software-Defined Politics?

Traditional politics operates like legacy code - functional but inefficient, opaque, and prone to corruption bugs. We're building Democracy 2.0 with modern engineering practices.

🔍 Transparent by Design

Every decision, vote, and policy change is tracked immutably. Our governance algorithms are open-source and auditable by anyone. No more black-box politics.

⚡ Rapid Iteration

Like software development, we believe in rapid prototyping, testing, and iteration. Pilot programs, A/B testing for policies, and continuous improvement based on real-world data.

🤝 Collaborative Development

Politics should be collaborative like open-source projects. Pull requests for policy changes, peer review by domain experts, and community-driven development of solutions.

Join the System Hackers

Are you a domain expert tired of watching politicians make uninformed decisions in your field?

We're building a movement of system hackers who want to debug democracy and implement evidence-based governance.
