Do away with obstructionist rules: Jitendra Singh
New Delhi: Union Minister Jitendra Singh on Thursday said any rule which tends to create inconvenience or harassment for common people should be dropped.
The minister was speaking at a workshop here on implementation of e-Office in central ministries and departments which was organised by the department of administrative reforms and public grievances (DARPG).
The minister further said that bureaucrats are liable to promote many initiatives started by the government such as self-attestation of documents for official works and others, to promote easy and effective governance.
“E-office is something which has been happening for long. This is a global phenomenon. We are rather late in it,” said Jitendra Singh, who is the minister of state (MoS) for personnel, public grievances and pensions.
The minister said the advantages of e-office or computerisation of office procedures will reduce red-tapism from the system.
Jitendra Singh added that over 60,000 files, which were of no use, have been digitised in his ministry alone.
The RG Marathon Championship Run 2023 in Goa was a testament to inclusivity. Initially resistant to including persons with disabilities, it eventually featured wheelchair and standing categories, thanks to advocates’ efforts. Participants showed exceptional determination, emphasizing unity in diversity. Despite challenging weather, they demonstrated the power of community support, highlighting the need for accessibility and inclusion in all state-level events in Goa.
Following the marathon, a gathering of differently-abled individuals, predominantly wheelchair users, convened for a celebratory lunch at Barzilla. The event, orchestrated by Mr. Shariq Khan and Mr. Zain Aftab, proprietors of Barzilla, honored the birthday of Sadaf Fatima, who also uses a wheelchair and is Mr. Shariq Khan’s wife.
The lunch featured esteemed guests including the Tourism Minister of Goa, MLA Rohan Khaunte of Porvorim, Social Welfare Minister Subhash Phal Desai, and the State Commissioner for Persons with Disability in Goa, Guruprasad Pawaskar. The event was impeccably hosted by Ms. Falak Fatima and Mr. Adarsh Parashar, offering activities such as Karaoke and Billiards. The youth of Goa exhibited their unwavering support for the community, making the party an unequivocal success.
