A group of secretaries had recommended an online platform, with the objective of integrating all the government employees on a "hiring to retiring" pattern, Parliament was informed today.
Minister of State for Personnel, Public Grievances and Pensions Jitendra Singh informed this in a written reply to the Lok Sabha.
He said the Group of Secretaries on Governance had recommended a single online platform to integrate all employees from "hiring to retiring" for a transparent and accountable governance.
The other recommendations of the group included a platform for massive open online courses for building capacity of all the government functionaries and to bring up a comprehensive development role manual for the functionaries at the district and block level, Singh said.
The minister said the improvement in public services by making them "personless, paperless and cashless" was an ongoing process.
He cited the Direct Benefits Transfer, Digital Locker, National Scholarship Portal, e-Office and Jeevan Pramaan as some initiatives in that direction.
