IAS 2014 Batch Assistant Secretaries make presentations to PM

The Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi chaired the Valedictory Session of Assistant Secretaries, IAS officers of the 2014 batch on 16th OCT 2016.

Speaking on the occasion, the Prime Minister complimented the young officers, for their in-depth presentations. He said that the results as presented today give him satisfaction and it shows that we are well on the road towards realization of the dreams of founding fathers.

The Prime Minister said the attachment of IAS officers as Assistant Secretaries with the Union Government has been envisaged as a mechanism that would bring the best out of the blend of youth and experience. He urged the officers to inculcate team spirit, and work towards breaking silos, in whatever capacity they serve.

Stating that politics should never override policy, the Prime Minister urged the officers to use two touchstones to help them in their decision-making: (a) that the decisions should never be counter to national interest, and (b) that the decisions should not harm the poorest of the poor.

Eight selected presentations on various themes of governance were made by the officers, on themes such as DBT, Swachh Bharat, e-Courts, Tourism, Health and Satellite Applications in Governance.
