Lucknow, 23 Oct (HS): Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi

Adityanath and Union Minister of State for Science and Technology (Independent

Charge) Jitendra Singh on Friday inaugurated the two-day 'Sadhana Series' under

Mission Karmayogi by lighting a lamp at Lok Bhavan. Speaking on the occasion,

Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath said that citizens' problems must be resolved in

a timely manner. The purpose of public service is fulfilled only when citizens

receive timely solutions. The Chief Minister said that technology can speed up

governance, but it is the spirit of service of employees that makes us

accountable to citizens. Only when the administrative system is efficient, sensitive,

and responsive does the benefit of government schemes reach the lowest rung of

society, and the commitment to good governance is realized in the form of

public welfare.

Yogi said that artificial intelligence, data analytics, and

digital technology are rapidly transforming the face of governance. We must be

prepared to equip our public servants to adapt to these changes. Transforming

the work culture of public service must become part of a national campaign for

all of us.

In the program organized in Lucknow for the launch of the

Northern Regional Workshop 'Sadhana Series' on the transformation of training

institutions of 12 states/Union Territories under Mission Karmayogi, with the

Honorable Union Minister of State @DrJitendraSingh

ji, UP CM said, “India

has the largest road network, the largest rail network, and the largest air

connectivity network in Uttar Pradesh. Over the past nine and a half years,

housing has been provided to 65 lakh poor people, toilets to more than 3 crore

families, and the benefits of the Pradhan Mantri Garib Kalyan Anna Yojana

(PMGKAY) to more than 15 crore people.

We can confidently say that the benefits of every scheme

have reached every poor person with honesty. Transformation in the work culture

of public service should be a part of a national campaign for all of us. Artificial

intelligence, data analytics, and digital technology are rapidly transforming

the nature of governance. We must be prepared to empower our public servants to

adapt to these changes.”

The Chief Minister said that to build a developed India, the

capabilities of Gram Panchayat personnel will also have to be enhanced. Yogi

Adityanath said that under the guidance of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the

double-engine government is giving a new direction to the country's administrative

work culture through initiatives like Mission Karmayogi. In keeping with the

spirit of minimum government, maximum governance, Karmayogi Uttar Pradesh is

fully committed to playing its leading role in building a developed India by

realizing the resolve of Antyodaya.

The Chief Minister said that Uttar Pradesh is a state

blessed by nature and God. Yet, for a long time, Uttar Pradesh remained

impoverished and yearned for its identity. He said that potential existed here,

but the political will to transform it into achievements was lacking. A festive

state was transformed into a riot-ridden one. Under Modi's leadership, work has

progressed in Uttar Pradesh. The state's GDP has tripled. In the last nine and

a half years, 6.5 million poor people have been provided with housing, over 30

million families with toilets, and over 150 million people have been provided

with the benefits of the Pradhan Mantri Garib Kalyan Anna Yojana. We can

confidently say that the benefits of every scheme have reached every poor

person with honesty. Uttar Pradesh boasts India's largest road network, largest

rail network, and largest air connectivity network.

“Today, in the esteemed presence of the Hon'ble Union

Minister of State (Independent Charge) @DrJitendraSingh ji, the Northern

Regional Workshop 'Sadhana Series' was inaugurated in Lucknow on the

transformation of training institutions of 12 states/Union Territories under

Mission Karmayogi, organized jointly by the Dr. Ram Manohar Lohia Uttar Pradesh

Institute of Administration and Management and the Capacity Building

Commission, Government of India. At the same time, the UNNATI Capability Index

and the National Curriculum Design Framework were also launched. States that

secured first, second, and third positions in the country for training of

government personnel, as well as departments of Uttar Pradesh that performed

better in various categories under Mission Karmayogi, were honored. For

building a 'Viksit Bharat', along with better policies, a capable, sensitive,

and results-oriented administration that implements them effectively is also

essential. This is the resolve of Mission Karmayogi and the foundation of Uttar

Pradesh's transformation journey as well. Best wishes for the successful

organization of the workshop,” mentioned UP CM in a post on X.
