N1  - Public funds are usually spent with no real monetary control and this can
often lead to manipulation and misguidance of funds. This project aims at
building a transparent accountable system for monitoring public fund expenditure
, projects and schemes. The Social audit is a concept where people
who are beneciaries of government schemes and projects get an opportunity
to evaluate the implementation and Progress of these initiatives. Social audit
architecture is based on a set of volunteers, who provides data regarding the
progression of a public project. The submitted data is validated by the peer
volunteers and is recored as an ocial proof of progress. Every volunteer is
rated according to their actions and contributions in the network. We use the
blockchain technology to keep the record of progress , this help induce transparency
in the system . The blockchain helps keep a chronological record of
a project progress and the distribution of funds.
Blockchain is a Digital platform capable of allowing the induction of certain
problem resolution responsibilities to individuals in a society and make
them accountable for their actions via a transparent and immutable recording
system. The proposed project allows the normal citizens of a community
to oversee and audit the social or public development activities ran by any
government or private rms in their locality. Every details aquired by the
volunteers will be recorded using a transparent and immutable system which
holds them accountable for their actions. A feedback mechanism helps to
rate the eciency of the individuals involved in the system and a karma
rating is given to all the volunteers
