Clean Nagaland publishes aggregate outcomes on the first of every month at 9:00 AM IST. This page shows what the platform actually did the previous month: how many reports came in, how many were approved, how many were rejected, how many drug cases were forwarded to partners, and what happened next.

We publish good numbers and bad numbers. If the platform is underperforming, this page will show that. We would rather be embarrassed than dishonest.

The live snapshot

What the numbers mean

Alcohol pipeline

• Received. Total number of alcohol reports submitted in the month, before moderation.
• Approved. Reports that passed moderator review and now appear as pins on the public map. Includes reports that merged into existing pins within the 100-meter auto-merge radius.
• Rejected. Reports that moderators declined to publish. Reasons vary: insufficient detail, outside Nagaland, licensed businesses, naming individuals, apparent abuse, and so on.
• Held. Reports paused for additional review. Most held reports resolve to approved or rejected within the month. Any still held at month end are counted here and will appear as resolved in the next monthly snapshot.
• Operator-verified. Pins where Aloto Naga personally visited the location and confirmed the report matches reality. This is a cumulative count across the life of the platform, updated monthly.

Drug pipeline

• Received. Total drug reports submitted in the month.
• Approved. Reports moderators judged actionable and ready to forward.
• Forwarded. Approved reports that were actually routed to one or more partner organizations. An approved report might wait briefly before routing; this count reflects completed forwards.
• Acknowledged by partners. Forwarded cases that a partner organization marked as seen and entered into their workflow.
• Acted on. Forwarded cases where a partner took concrete action (counseling outreach, referral, intervention, or similar).
• Closed. Forwarded cases where the partner determined their engagement was complete.
• Rejected. Reports that did not pass moderation.

Drug pipeline counts lag the alcohol pipeline because partner action happens over weeks or months. A drug report received in April might be acknowledged in May and closed in July. Each event appears in the month it occurred.

Vault activity

• Phones stored. Drug reports submitted with a phone number and consent.
• Phones revealed. Times a moderator unlocked a specific phone for partner contact, under the two-consent gate.
• Phones deleted. Phones removed after case closure or at the 24-month limit, whichever came first.

System events

• Killswitch activations. Times the platform’s submission forms were paused in the month. Zero is the normal and expected value.
• Audit log entries. Total logged events across all categories in the month, a rough index of platform activity.

What these numbers will not show you

To protect residents, reporters, and partners, this page does not break down numbers in ways that could identify specific cases:

• No report-level detail. Every number is aggregated across many cases.
• No district-level drug counts that could identify individuals in small communities.
• No partner-specific counts that could identify which organization handled which kind of case.
• No reporter demographics. We do not collect them.
• No individual names. Ever.

Researchers who need finer-grained data can request it through the Media Kit. Requests are handled case by case with privacy as the primary constraint.

How the numbers are generated

On the first day of each month at 9:00 AM IST, an automated process reads the audit log for the previous month, counts events by category, and publishes the snapshot. The same code generates the public version and the internal version, so the numbers on this page match what Nagaland Me sees in its own dashboard.

A moderator reviews the generated snapshot before it goes live. If something looks clearly wrong, publication is delayed and the reason is posted here. Delays have not happened to date but the process allows for them.

Historical snapshots

Every month’s snapshot remains available for inspection. You can browse past months through the snapshot widget above. We do not delete historical data. If a past number contained an error, the page shows the correction note with a date.

Downloading the data

Each monthly snapshot is available as CSV and JSON for researchers, journalists, and civic auditors who want to work with the numbers directly. Download links appear next to each published month in the widget.

Download files contain the same aggregate numbers shown on the page, structured for easy import into spreadsheets or data tools. No individual report data is ever included.

Why we publish this

A civic reporting platform that cannot prove it is doing anything useful is just an unfulfilled promise. Monthly publication forces us to confront our own track record in public. If approval rates are low because moderators are too strict, we see that and adjust training. If forwarded cases are not being acted on, we see that and revisit partner onboarding. If the killswitch is activating often, we see that and ask why.

Transparency is also a trust investment. Residents are being asked to submit reports anonymously to a platform operated by a private company. The only evidence we can offer that their reports go somewhere useful is a monthly public count. If the numbers ever stop being published, something has gone wrong. Ask us about it.

What counts as “the month”

Each monthly snapshot covers the calendar month ending on the last day before publication. The April snapshot published on May 1 covers April 1 through April 30, all times in Indian Standard Time.

Events are counted in the month they occurred, not the month they were submitted. A drug report submitted in March but closed in July will appear in March’s “received” column and July’s “closed” column. This is why drug pipeline numbers look smaller in recent months: the work is still in progress.

Corrections and reissues

If an error is discovered in a past snapshot, the correction appears directly on that month’s page with a dated note explaining what changed and why. We do not silently edit published numbers.

If a correction changes the count for a material category by more than 5%, we also post a short announcement on the platform so regular readers know about the update.

When publication is delayed

Under normal conditions the snapshot publishes automatically at 9:00 AM IST on the first of each month. If moderator review reveals an issue, publication is held until resolved. Delays of more than 24 hours are explained here with an estimated new publication time.

Delays have the following common causes:

• Data quality issue. An anomaly in the raw counts that needs investigation before publishing.
• Audit log reconciliation. A moderator action that was logged twice or a forward that did not complete properly.
• Post-incident review. If the previous month included a killswitch event or a serious moderation incident, the review of those events may delay publication by a few hours.

A delay is not a sign of manipulation. It is a sign the review process is working.

Missing from the numbers

Some real platform activity is not visible in the monthly snapshot because it does not fit the counted categories:

• Technical maintenance, bug fixes, and routine updates.
• Partner onboarding conversations that did not result in a partner being added.
• Appeals to moderator decisions that did not result in a reversal.
• Takedown requests that did not result in a removal.
• Contact-form messages and their responses.

These activities happen and matter but are not well-suited to a monthly public count. If patterns in these areas become material to understanding the platform, we will add categories to the snapshot in future versions.

Questions

If a number on this page needs explaining, if something looks wrong, or if you want to understand the methodology in more depth, use the Contact page. We answer transparency questions with priority.

The raw audit log behind these numbers is not public. Its disclosure would compromise reporter privacy. We publish what we can and protect what we must.
