PM Narendra Modi had advised Ministers should be punctual, regular and avoid working from home.
PM Modi reportedly also asked senior ministers to mentor first-timers and assign work to ministers of state. Cabinet ministers must share files with their juniors to improve productivity, he said.
Ministers were advised to fix a day to meet with party workers and to regularly meet lawmakers, said sources. He urged them to agree to meeting with lawmakers whenever they sought an appointment.
“They were told work should be done in office, not at home,” said sources, quoting the Prime Minister.
The Prime Minister, who is known to start his day very early and work long hours, said ministers must reach office on time and spend some moments discussing latest developments in the ministry with officials.
PM Modi started a second term last month after being re-elected with a huge mandate.
Addressing ministers yesterday, he asserted that to ensure efficiency, cabinet ministers must sit with their junior colleagues to clear proposals.
