Our Mission:

To give a media voice to the underprivileged and minority communities and individuals by inviting them to be panelist on our panel discussion TV WEEKLY program “PASSION FOR TRUTH” which is being produced and aired on the cable community TV channels of Washington DC metropolitan area (the most powerful city of the world).

To define the TRUE DEMOCRACY   by picking subjects of discussion by which the panelists will compare the working of the present democracies of the world.  Democracy cannot be achieved by elections alone but must also have the democratic institutions to ensure the Rule of Law, Protection of Minorities and Human rights etc. The yard-stick to check any other democracy in the world can be the working of democracy of the United States of America.

 Since 1993 ”PASION FOR TRUTH” is also an avenue for networking between like minded organizations to establish and nurture meaningful projects and dialogues - whether social, cultural or political- to promote essential democratic institutions in all so-called democracies of the world, harmony, understanding and reciprocity in our villages, towns and cities.

Accordingly, “PASSION FOR TRUTH” has sought to fulfill its mission not only by informing, and educating but also by participating in cross cultural and political exchanges to ensure that the promises and benefits of democracy are realized by all.
