Prime Minister Narendra Modi Meets Secretaries of All Govt Departments Wednesday June 04,2014

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday June 04,2014 met the secretaries of all the government departments collectively and said that he was accessible to all officers. He encouraged them to approach him with their inputs and ideas to make the government people friendly

In the meeting with 77 top bureaucrats that lasted over two-and-a-half hours, the Prime Minister expressed 'full faith in their commitment and competence to build a better future for the country.' 

It is learnt that 16 groups were formed by clubbing related ministries. All finance ministry departments were grouped together, while secretaries of energy-related departments - power, coal, oil, mines and atomic energy were put together.

The Prime Minister called upon the senior bureaucrats to simplify and streamline the administrative rules and procedures to make them people-friendly. The Prime Minister asked the secretaries to identify and do away with archaic rules and procedures as "they are leading to avoidable confusion."

He added that the process of governance of his government should begin with cleaning-up of the offices, improving the workplace, which would automatically result in a better work culture and efficient services to the citizens.

"Had a very fruitful meeting with Secretaries. Heard their views & asked to simplify administrative processes & make Govt. people friendly (sic)" Narendra Modi wrote on Twitter after the meet.
