Governance of chhattisgarh

Unburdened by Governance legacies, chhattisgarh has focussed only on critical areas of law and order, education, health, environment, social safety nets, fiscal reforms and e-governance. The State has become an enabler and facilitator for the creative energies of its people. Government keeps out of all activities that can be done more efficiently by the private sector. There are no more than six Public Sector Units, that too in critical areas of Social Concern.

To eliminate red tape and procedural hassles in getting all sorts of clearances, a special law has been enacted- the chhattisgarh Investment Promotion Act, 2002, This lays down statutory time limits for all clearances, to be given by a single Point-of-Investor Contact. Facilitation services for the Investor and time bound approvals are thus guaranteed by law in chhattisgarh.

‘chhattisgarh 2010′- the State’s Vision Document lays out the five key actions of the State over the next 10 years and lays special stress on enhancing our human capital. In order to translate the Vision into reality, six-monthly milestones have been prescribed; and we are well on our way to realize the Vision for chhattisgarh- the Fast Track State.

The State cabinet meets every Tuesday and decisions come quickly. All Government functionaries are easily accessible and Chief Minister has an hour- long Jan Darshan every morning where he meets people with no prior appointment.
