Governance is how Government institutions conduct public affairs
and manage public & National resources. It is the process of decision
making and the system by which
decisions are executed fully, partially or not at all.
The biggest hindrance to Good Governance is the Corruption, lack of Vision &
Discipline in all forms which leads to Chaos & Poverty in our
society. In today’s political scenario; politics has become business and “Me
& My family” is above party and country. There are just 2 to 3 Political
Parties which do not practice, family veto in the Party. So if we are expecting 100% of
good people in politics; then there is long way to go. Till that time we need
to vote a candidate who is the “Best among the worst” or “NOTA” (None Of The
above) as a respected Citizen; at constituency level.
Now who can give us Good Governance? A person who is Dynamic, Charismatic, Visionary, Mass Leader and Efficient
Executor (who can improve Demand Supply chain, Service Delivery & Grievance
Residual System) is leading at the highest institutional level (Prime
Minister).
The biggest measurable parameters of Good Governance are that :
(1) Everyone should get employment of his/her choice (including 3rd Gender), which will fulfil their
aspiration.
(2) Quality life.
(3) Justice.
(4) Equality.
In the above mention points Government has major role to play in
creating that atmosphere.
(Equality & Justice: Eg. In the sake of Equality if we stop
given eligible maternity leave to females it will not be Justice to overall
Society.)
My Thoughts about how to achieve Good
Governance :
Good Governance lead to Developed Nation. To become Developed
nation in least possible time what we need is Modernisation and not
Westernisation. Modernisation can be achieved by making, Digitalisation
(Computerisation) and E Governance (Online –Internet) as Catalyst.
The objective of Digitalisation and E Governance is to make 80%
paperless offices (in comparison with today) across our country by 75th Independence Day which will reduce
corruption to 70 - 80% (in comparison with today). The Digitalization and
E-Governance systems should be designed in such a manner that there should not
be any scope for corruption. The eminent personalities such as Dr. APJ Abdul
Kalam and others should leads this Digitalisation and E Governance Project on
technical front to achieve the target by 75th Independence Day.
The biggest successful
projects in India which ease the common man’s operational problems are Indian
Railway’s “Online Passenger Reservation System”, Core and Internet Banking,
Equity & Mutual Fund’s Trading (Demat & Online Trading) , Gujarat State
PDS.
