- Capacity Building Program for officers
Addressing the Capacity Building Programme for senior officers of Jammu and Kashmir Services, Union minister of State (Independent charge) Science and Technology, Minister of State (Independent charge) Earth Sciences; MoS PMO, Personnel, Public Grievances, Pensions, Atomic energy, and Space Dr. Jitendra Singh said that after the new constitutional arrangement came into existence and following the creation of Union Territory, several governance reforms have been reduced in Jammu and Kashmir, which was not so earlier.
Dr. Singh further said it is only last year that the Prevention of Corruption Act of India with its amended form was introduced in Jammu and Kashmir, whereas in the past the then State of Jammu and Kashmir had its own Anti-Graft Law.
He said the new act will not only be more effective in curbing corruption but also provide several safeguards to honestly performing officers. He called upon the Jammu and Kashmir officers to adopt best practices in governance being followed at the Centre as well as several State governments and replicate them in their respective areas of work.
