One of the important endeavors of the present government has been to improve the 'Ease of Living'. In simple words, this means that the citizen-government interface, in matters of daily routine, must be made as seamless as possible and as citizen friendly as possible. Among other things, this has translated into reforming many rules and regulations and in an overwhelming number of cases completely doing away with such antediluvian rules which had not only outlived their utility, but in many cases were frankly anti-people. The mandate has been clear - between the citizens and the governments, the rules and processes must defer to ensuring the ease of living of citizens.

Consider for example the earlier rule of seeking gazetted officers attestation to validate one's documents before appearing in exams. That rule is now history. Trusting the citizens was the mandate and self-attestation is now the new rule. Or consider the move to scrap interviews for non-gazetted Group D, C and B government jobs. In one stroke the entire industry of 'recommendations' has been shut down and pure merit has become the norm.

What are other such outdated and ill-conceived rules, regulations or practices that hinder the normal day to day lived experience of the people? In day-to-day governance issues what are the processes or system that can be simplified or simply done away with? Which are processes that serve the exact opposite purpose they are intended to serve? Rules, regulations and laws that serve no useful social purpose but merely create unnecessary red tape and bureaucracy and therefore need to go?

MyGov invites citizens, members of civil society, journalists, students, teachers, police officers, government employees, Parliamentarians, academics experts, bureaucrats, social media influencers, Think Tanks and all other interested people to give their considered view on the subject.

Our education system needs exams like NEET not only for medical but also for engineering and arts. It can change our society from theory oriented to practicable oriented.

Chemical fertilisers are having susidy and the same can be extended to compost and bio fertilisers. This will enrich earth and will financially support cattle maintenance instead of that being sent to .abattoirs

Most of the current systems and processes are carry forward from 20th century. We need to completely overhaul everything for this 21st century digital world. Proper feedback need to be provided at every stage. For example, unless we get proper response and action taken based on this post, no one will be motivated to post the next time on another topic. We need design system such the intent is correct. System should ensure people themselves aspire to become literate and come out of property.

I request the Govt of India, to withdraw NEET examination for the State run Medical institutions. Let the State Govt decide the pattern of filling their own seats. Because NEET provides opportunity only for the wealthy students who can join special coaching institutes and poor income families are unable to compete in the strong competition. Its not the talent matters, its the opportunity matters.

Think of introducing Chip embedded Aadhaar cards, with only Name & address appearing on the face of the card and hiding other sensitive details including AAdhaar card number in the chip. Kiosks must be established where users can update the details with PIN & OTP, at govt offices. May be biometric reader also can be inbuilt in those machines

Walking rules on the Public Road, At large the public has become so intolerant that it seems they have forgotten the roads are for public vehicles to. While walking on the public roads 50% of the public have no consciousness of the vehicle which are moving around since they busy talking on the PHONES and ignorant to move aside and give way to the vehicles. 1. It will save the Person,2.Save Fuel mileage by less traffic . 3. Fight between person and driver will avoid traffic and save fuel.
