JAMMU, Jan 5: PIB Director Neha Jalali on Monday said that PRAGATI has emerged as a powerful instrument of digital governance, effectively translating intent into tangible outcomes by breaking bureaucratic inertia and strengthening Centre-state coordination.
"PRAGATI is a powerful illustration of how digital governance can effectively translate intent into tangible and visible outcomes. It is not merely a review platform, but a transformative governance mechanism aimed at breaking bureaucratic inertia, strengthening the Team India approach through enhanced coordination between the Centre and states, and fostering a culture of time-bound decision-making, accountability and outcome-based monitoring," Jalali told reporters here.
Citing the Jammu-Udhampur-Srinagar-Baramulla (JUSBRL) rail link as an example, she said work on the project began in 1995 but saw limited progress for nearly 25 years due to difficult terrain, land acquisition issues, forest clearances and security-related constraints. |
