Listing the qualities that the government envisions in future civil servants, Mission Karmayogi will aim to prepare them to be more creative, constructive, imaginative, innovative, proactive, professional, progressive, energetic, enabling, transparent as well as technology-enabled.
Through a powerpoint presentation, the government showcased its "vision" of the civil servants and end the culture of them "working in silos". This is in sync with Prime Minister Narendra modi's vision of 'New India'.
The aim of the National Programme for Civil Services Capacity Building is to shift it from rule-based to role-based human resource management, said Union Information and Broadcasting Minister Prakash Javadekar.
