After 5 ‘Chintan Shivirs’, What Next for Modi Ministers: An Inside Look
Prime Minister Narendra Modi has concluded five ‘Chintan Shivirs’ with his Union Council of Ministers. The sessions lasted for more than four hours during which ministers gave presentations and the PM deliberated on several issues.
Seventy-seven ministers have been divided into eight groups with one of them chosen as the coordinator for each, sources said. The meeting was termed ‘Chintan Shivar’, a contemplation session for overall improvement in efficiency and governance.
In the first session, Union ministers Dharmendra Pradhan and Mansukh Mandaviya gave presentations on individual efficiency. The second, led by Piyush Goyal and Gajendra Shekhawat, was about implementation.
Other ministers who presented were Hardeep Singh Puri (functioning and stakeholder engagement), Anurag Singh Thakur (party coordination and effective communication), and Pralhad Joshi (parliamentary practices).
In the last meeting, Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla and Rajya Sabha Chairman M Venkaiah Naidu were also invited as special guests.
While Smriti Irani headed the group that would give information of all ministries, Mansukh Mandaviya would focus on the office monitoring systems and Hardeep Puri would lead the one on learnings.
Anurag Singh Thakur has been entrusted with leading the group that would review others’ work. Several other groups have been created to be headed by Piyush Goyal, Dharmendra Pradhan, Narendra Singh Tomar and Pralhad Joshi.
The Modi government wants to move forward pushing the policy of ‘Sabka Saath Sabka Vikas Sabka Vishwas’ further.
These meetings hold importance for the ministers who were brought in to the government after the Cabinet rejig.
In the last monsoon session of Parliament, PM Modi had asked the first-time ministers to spend time in the Rajya Sabha and learn debates.
The Prime Minister has often instructed his cabinet colleagues to focus on the job at hand rather than focusing on speaking to the media.
