Innovations in Adminstration
About the book
All the successive governments in India, since Independence, have talked about community participation in governance, but the results have been disappointing. In this scenario, the 1985 batch Karnataka cadre IAS officer Bharat Lal Meena made it possible through his out of the box initiatives during his three-decade long Civil Service career. Right from his first posting as Assistant Commissioner in Lingasugur tehsil of Raichur District in Karnataka to his present posting as Additional Chief Secretary and In-charge of Higher Education, he has created a model of active community participation in governance with wonderful results. This book provides vivid description of some of his innovative steps that proved to be a precedent in governance and have been subsequently adopted by the States and Union Governments. Many of the present-day innovative schemes, such as Smart Cities, DBT, Soil Health Cards, Social Audit, and biometric attendance, were visualised and materialised by the author decades ago. Apart from providing information about these steps, the book also acquaints readers with how he dealt with various administrative challenges and how he turned the ‘I’ feeling into the ‘we’ feeling. An essential read for the management professionals, serving bureaucrats and the youth preparing for civil services or other competitive examinations.
