Minister of State for Personnel, Public Grievances and Pension, Dr Jitendra Singh, has said that good governance is not an abstract ideal but a daily administrative responsibility rooted in transparency, accountability and citizen-centric delivery. While addressing the National Workshop on good governance practices held on the occasion of Good Governance Day in New Delhi, the Minister emphasized that collaborative efforts across ministries and departments have strengthened administrative efficiency and enhanced social welfare outcomes. During the event, Dr Singh launched five major initiatives, including the Compendium of Guidelines on Reservation for Ex-Servicemen in Central Government, AI-powered Recruitment Rules Generator Tool, and Karmayogi Digital Learning Lab 2.0, among others. He said that these initiatives are aimed at strengthening core governance processes and equipping civil servants for the challenges of a fast-evolving administrative landscape. The Minister also lauded the Special Campaign 5.0 as a landmark initiative that has significantly reshaped governance practices. He noted that Good Governance Day holds special significance as the nation commemorates the birth anniversary of former Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee, who institutionalised the concept of probity in public life and laid the foundations of people-first governance.
