To keep it open

For all!
For all!

Dear reader,

We’ve heard this from many of you over the years: “How can I contribute to make Swarajya’s content free for everyone, just for a day at least?"

Starting today, you can. By becoming a patron, you now have the power to sponsor Swarajya to go completely paywall-free—for everyone, everywhere—for a duration based on your contribution.

Here’s how it works:

  • To open access for a full 24 hours, the total contribution needs to hit Rs 49,999.

  • If you contribute a smaller amount, say Rs 2,999 or Rs 9,999, your contribution:

    • Unlocks access for a proportional window (based on how much you give),

    • Or goes into a common pool, and once the pool crosses Rs 49,999, we open access for a full day.

During your sponsored period, the entire site opens up—for free.

Now, just to be clear:

This is NOT us, in any way, sticking a price tag for a single day. The time, effort, and editorial rigour behind each story can sometimes span days—sometimes weeks—of deep research, fieldwork, conversations, number-crunching and careful writing (and rewriting!).

That's why we want to emphasise: this is more of a meaningful way for the larger Swarajya family—especially those like you, who have always shown your appreciation to us—to open it for others.

It’s a simple-yet-powerful way to widen Swarajya’s reach.

If you want to make that happen, here's the chance. Click here to sponsor, become a patron and take Swarajya to everyone.

All contributors will also get 12 monthly print copies, unlimited digital access, a T-shirt of your choice from Swarajya store FREE.

Thanks a lot,
