New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi said on Tuesday that the passage of the women’s reservation bill in Parliament’s new building has heralded a new future for the country, asserting that it is his government’s policy to open new doors for girls.
Addressing a Rozgar Mela after distribution of appointment letters to over 51,000 new employees in different government departments through a virtual event, Modi also emphasised on growing use of technology in governance. The use of technology in government schemes has stopped corruption and reduced complexities, and boosted credibility and comfort, he told the new employees.
He asked them to work with the motto of “citizens-first” and deploying technology to improve governance, citing its use in direct benefit transfers to beneficiaries of various schemes, booking of train tickets and digital locker among other fields.
