"We never seem to move forward and whenever we do... there is always that CAG report or something else report which might say why did you move faster than you should have that L1 (lowest bidder) which we have, which may not be the best quality," Dikshit said.
"I think somewhere, and I particularly appeal to Dr Montek Ahluwalia ji, that we must improve and better our decision making systems which are really really very very slow," she said.
Dikshit, who has herself faced pressure in the past due to unfavourable observations on Commonwealth Games CAG reports, was speaking at a function organised by the Confederation of Indian Industry (CII) where Planning Commission Deputy Chairman Montek Singh Ahluwalia was present.
"Even those of us who are in government find it very frustrating that somethings we have to go over and over again," Dikshit said raising the demand for the changes in the administrative system.
"We need to change our system of administration. Take much quicker decisions and not decisions based only on the cheapest price but also by the nature of quality.
"Otherwise, I am afraid if we carry on rules and regulations made in 1898 or 1908, we will not be able to move at a fast rate that we all want to," Dikshit said and added that she hoped that the industry would help the government to move ahead. (more) PTI ADS
