Indian bureaucrats need constant re-orientation as they face new challenges every day
Union Minister of State (Independent Charge) of
Science & Technology and Earth Sciences, MoS PMO, Personnel, Public
Grievances & Pensions, Atomic Energy and Space, Dr. Jitendra Singh said
that Indian bureaucrats need constant re-orientation because they are faced
with new challenges every day, the expectation level is high, the conditions
across the country are heterogeneous and above all, they are expected to
develop the skill of adjusting with every new political dispensation under
which they work. The Minister was addressing a group of senior IAS officers at
the “Curtain Raiser” programme of the Mid-Career training at Lal Bahadur
Shastri National Academy of Administration (LBSNAA), Mussoorie, here today.
Dr. Jitendra Singh said, the IAS officers
attending today’s programme are drawn from the 1985-87 batches and hold high
positions of Joint Secretary at the Centre or Principal Secretaries in the
State and therefore, they are themselves also capable of providing valuable
educative inputs from their personal experience to the budding bureaucrats at
LBSNAA. These officers are now going to get elevated to the highest rungs of
bureaucracy and decision making in the government where they would be called to
conceptualize new policies for 21st century and hence it is this lot of
bureaucrats who will be playing the historic role of being the architects of
India emerging as a world power in the next few years, he added.
Describing as misnomer the description that “IAS”
is a replica or legacy of the erstwhile Indian Civil Service (ICS) of British
Raj, Dr. Jitendra Singh pointed out that the basic scientific difference
between the two is that while an ICS officer was expected to collect revenue
and hence called a District Collector, an IAS officer, on the other hand, is
expected to generate revenue and hence called District Development
Commissioner.
Dr. Jitendra Singh said, the Narendra Modi
government at the Centre has taken upon itself the task of ensuring good
governance which would be, at the same time, people-friendly and
development-oriented and therefore, certainly it is the bureaucrat’s
responsibility to translate this dream into a reality.
The Union Cabinet Secretary Shri Ajit Seth, Union
Secretary Personnel, Shri Sanjay Kothari and Director LBSNAA, Shri Rajiv Kapoor
also spoke on the occasion.
