Recruitment process under our govt more streamlined, transparent: PM Modi

TIL Desk/National/New Delhi/ Prime Minister Narendra Modi asserted on Friday that his government had effected broad changes in the recruitment process by making it more streamlined and time-bound while boosting transparency and speed.

Distributing 71,426 appointment letters to recruits in different government departments, Modi said the ongoing ‘Rozgar Mela’ exercises have become an identity of his government. This shows that it fulfils what it resolves to do, he added.

The prime minister had last year announced the ‘Rozgar Mela’ drive to give jobs to 10 lakh people and noted on Friday that several states where the BJP and its allies are in power have also been holding them. More states will organise them soon, he said.

Addressing the recruits, he asked them to resolve to serve people and said the mantra in the administrative system should be that the citizen is always right like it is noted in business that the consumer is always right. That is why employment in the government sector is called “government service” and not jobs, he said.
