NEW DELHI: The Union Cabinet met on Wednesday and took some key decisions including the approval of Mission Karmayogi for civil servants for bringing post-recruitment reforms in government and introduction of J&K languages bill in Parliament.
Union ministers Prakash Javadekar and Dr Jitendra Singh briefed media on the key C abinet decisions.
Here are the key decision taken during the Cabinet meet:
* The Cabinet approved Mission Karmayogi – national programme for civil services capacity building – to lay the foundation for capacity building of civil servants so that they remain entrenched in Indian culture while they learn from best practices across the world.
* Union minister Prakash Javadekar said that ‘Mission Karmayogi’ aims to prepare Indian civil servants for future by making them more creative, constructive, imaginative, innovative, proactive, professional, progressive, energetic, enabling, transparent and technology-enabled.
* Mission Karmayogi will focus on individual (civil servants) and institutional capacity building. At top, there will be a PM’s HR Council which will consist of national and international experts under the chairmanship of the Prime Minister.
* Capacity Building Commission will be set up which will harmonise training standards, create shared faculty & resources, and will have a supervisory role over all training institutions so that there’s a common understanding of India’s aspirations and development goals.
* The Cabinet approved the introduction of Jammu & Kashmir Official Languages Bill, 2020 in the Parliament in which five languages – Urdu, Kashmiri, Dogri, Hindi and English – will be official languages. The decision was taken based on public demand, Javadekar said during a press briefing.
