New Delhi, Sept 25 (KNN) Instead of making new rules, government abolished several old and obsolete ones, Union Minister Jitendra Singh said adding that any rule which adds to the burden of governance and causes delay or harassment for the common man is not worth being retained.

While addressing the inaugural session of the Central Government Workshop on Implementation of e-Office and e-Governance on Thursday, Singh said that rules are meant for the benefit of the common masses.

He also stressed on the abolition of rule for getting the attestation of certificates and also the rule for a life certificate to be produced by every elderly pensioner.

The minister also said that the key to good governance lies in reducing red-tapism, expediting procedures through electronic and digital means, riddance from rules which are obstructionist and providing an environment which enables officers to perform their best.

While expectation level of people from bureaucrats and administrators has gone high, the society also expects them to show quick results in tune with the high-tech fast moving global world, he added. (KNN Bureau)
