The Union government introduced five digital reforms to enhance transparent and citizen-centric governance in India. Dr. Jitendra Singh, Union Minister of State for the Department of Personnel and Training, unveiled these reforms at the National Workshop on Good Governance Practices 2025 in New Delhi. The initiatives include the Ex-Servicemen Reservation Compendium, AI Recruitment Tool, e-HRMS 2.0 App, iGOT AI Platforms, and Karmayogi Digital Learning Lab 2.0.
Singh emphasized the importance of good governance, stating that it is about transparency, accountability, and citizen-focused service delivery. Good Governance Day, observed on December 25, commemorates the birth anniversary of former Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee, known for promoting probity in public life. Singh highlighted that since 2014, under Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s leadership, the concept of good governance has been actively implemented with the motto of “Minimum Government, Maximum Governance.”
The reforms aim to enhance core governance processes, support key stakeholders, and prepare civil servants for evolving administrative challenges. The Compendium of Guidelines on Reservation for Ex-Servicemen in Central Government consolidates all relevant instructions into a single, user-friendly reference. The AI-powered Recruitment Rules Generator Tool streamlines recruitment processes by providing guidance and generating draft rules aligned with DoPT guidelines.
The e-HRMS 2.0 mobile app, part of Mission Karmayogi, offers government employees direct access to essential human resource services. It integrates service records, HR processes, and links to platforms like SPARROW and PFMS, reducing paperwork and enhancing transparency. The iGOT Karmayogi platform introduces new AI features for personalized learning support, structured learning pathways, and capacity building tools. The Karmayogi Digital Learning Lab 2.0 utilizes modern technologies to create high-quality digital learning content for civil servants.
These initiatives signify a forward-looking approach to governance reform, emphasizing technology, institutional strengthening, and citizen-centric governance.
