The Raghubar Das cabinet has met 42 times in its one year tenure taking almost double the decisions compared to the previous regime.

"From December 28, 2014 to December 22, 2015, the cabinet has met 42 times, taking 814 decisions," said Sanjay Kumar, Principal Secretary to the Chief Minister.

This was in comparison between July 17, 2013 and October 24, 2014 when the (erstwhile) cabinet met 29 times and had taken 491 decisions, he said.

"This shows the pace of the government," Kumar said adding, they were unable to keep up with the pace of the Chief Minister.

"The only luxury we don't have is the luxury of time," he said.
 

Stressing the importance on trustworthiness, Kumar said what the government would say should happen.
