In an age where public service is often seen as a position of power, Shiv Pratap Singh stands out as a leader who sees it as a responsibility. With a deep-rooted commitment to the people and a practical understanding of governance, Singh has carved out a unique position as both a grassroots leader and a national voice.
His experience as a former member of the Telecom Advisory Committee (TAC) under the Ministry of Communication, Government of India, allowed him to observe and influence how digital technology could transform rural India. In his tenure, Singh highlighted the challenges faced by people in remote areas — lack of network coverage, poor internet connectivity, and unaffordable data plans. He worked closely with officials to implement solutions that were both affordable and sustainable.
But his approach didn’t stop at policy discussions. Singh personally engaged with communities, visiting panchayats, schools, and health centers to promote digital literacy and awareness of government telecom services. His outreach helped thousands gain access to online education, telemedicine, and banking services, especially in underserved regions.
Equally impactful was his role in the Divisional Railway Users Consultative Committee (DRUCC) under the Ministry of Railways. Here, he was instrumental in advocating for local needs in railway planning. He pushed for more halts in rural areas, improved sanitation in railway stations, and additional safety measures for women and children.
Unlike many who focus only on metro cities, Singh’s vision included tier-2 and tier-3 towns, where railways are a daily lifeline. His work led to more equitable railway services, bringing convenience and dignity to the daily commute of thousands.
Shiv Pratap Singh is more than a former government committee member—he is a citizen’s leader. He has repeatedly shown that leadership means listening to people, understanding their needs, and using every opportunity to create change.
His current initiatives focus on connecting youth with government schemes, promoting clean governance, and encouraging citizen participation in democracy.
As India moves forward, leaders like Singh will continue to play a crucial role in ensuring that progress is inclusive, transparent, and people-first.
