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What are other such outdated and ill-conceived rules, regulations or practices that hinder the normal day to day lived experience of the people?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.

Respected Prime Minister, I was very excited to see how swachh bharat abhiyan was helping clean our country from villages to metros, especially in the area of constructing public toilets. In this regard I'd like to request to you to do something about public toilets and rest areas on highways across the country. As a traveller, it gets very difficult when I travel long distance and not find any public toilets. Thank you!

Hello Sir, Just I want give you one suggestion which will help to all tax payers and government as well to show good governance. Please provide medical insurance to every tax payer for same amount which he has paid as tax for last year. this step will increase tax payers and honest tax payers trust on government. or else you can add one more type tax exemption like if any body paying expense for his dependent mother father or brother family then provide exemption equals to last year tax paid.

सरप्रक्रिया को अधिक सरल बनाने,समय पे कार्य करने यही इस समाज की मांग है,पर वास्तव में होता ये है कार्य को बेवज़ह टाला जाता है,जो समय पे हो सकता है उसे अनगिनत कारणों से फंसाया व देर की जाती है। जैसे-सरकारी तंत्र में स्थाईकरण करने,वेतन वर्द्धि करने,डीपीसी करने,सेवानिवृति के समय आदि आदि। कार्य को करना है यह तय है फिर भी क्यों कागज़ो के नाम पे हमेशा कागज़ो की मांग की जाती है? क्यों फाइल्स टाइम पे नहीं जा पाती? विशेष कर सरकारी कामो से आम जनता और कर्मचायो को इसका भुगतान करना पड़ता है, परेशान होना पड़ता है।

मैं सरकार द्वारा चलाए जा रहे,स्वच्छ भारत अभियान के संबंध में सरकार को कुछ सुझाव देना चाहता हूं ।सरकार से आग्रह है,कि वह भारतीय समाज की आवश्यकताओं के हिसाब से इस अभियान को चलाएं।सार्वजनिक स्थानों, रेलगाड़ी, रेलवे एवं बस स्टेशन तथा अन्य स्थानों पर भारतीय शैली के टॉयलेट बनाए जाने चाहिए।परंतु मैंने देखा है,कि बहुत से स्थानों पर अंग्रेजी शैली के टॉयलेट(कमोड)बनाए जा रहे हैं। इस तरह से सरकार का स्वच्छता अभियान सफल नहीं हो सकता।अतः सरकार को भारतीय समाज की जरूरतों के हिसाब से कार्य करना होगा।

Can't we have one identification card for all the purpose instead of different different card example: Driving licence, Pan card, Voter-id, Aadhar card, Ration card. We can store all the information in one card and update it when some info change.

माननीय प्रधानमंत्री जी मैं यह कहना चाहता हु की भारत में किसानो की आय दुगनी तभी होगी जब किसानो को सही समय तकनीकी रूप से कृषि करे जिसमे सबसे पहले किसान का सोयम का खाद व सोयम का बीज सोयम की दवा ओर सोयम अपने अनाज की बिक्री करे इतनी किसान के साथ हो जाता है तो किसानों की आय तीन गुना से ज्यादा हो जाएगी जिसके लिए जैविक खेती से जोड़ना आवस्यक है जिसने खाद,बीज,दवा,का पैसे बचत होंगे और किसानों को अपने संगठन बनाने होने जिस से सारे किसान मिल के अपना अपना अनाज बेचेंगे मुनफा कमाएंगे ओर विचोलिये से बच जाएंगे।

I don't know anybody can read or no because it's a matter of Arunachal Pradesh. If govt can give positive intention to this state than only govt can save the life of unemployed peoples / students,. Arunachal is underdeveloped state there is no Mobile network but other parts of the country use 4G, there is no road connectivity, it can be resolved only of ECCHA SHAKTTI of the govt. Govt can create a job in public sector All contract worker in Bsnl and other sectors in AP can be regularised.
