In another new initiative “Anubhav”, inspired by the Prime Minister Shri
Narendra Modi, the Ministry of Personnel, Public Grievances &
Pensions has advised officers retiring within a period of six months to
leave behind a note or write-up on their achievements as well as
outstanding work done by them which could have, according to them,
contributed to efficient functioning of the government or any innovation
introduced by them which could have led to improvement in work culture.
Disclosing this here today, Union Minister of State (Independent Charge)
for Development of North Eastern Region (DoNER), MoS PMO, Personnel,
Public Grievances, Pensions, Atomic Energy and Space, Dr. Jitendra Singh
said that “Anubhav” will serve as a platform for retiring employees to
showcase achievements made by them during their service tenure. While
the retiring employees can look back with satisfaction and a sense of
fulfillment, the written account left by them could serve as a vital
database for future improvement, he added.
Ministry of Personnel has, through a circular dated November 5, 2015,
sought to reiterate and remind all the Ministries and Departments to
follow up this initiative seriously. The Link to “Anubhav” Portal is
available on the homepage of Department’s website at http://persmin.nic.in
→ DoP&T → Anubhav, he informed and added that initially this
facility is available only to retiring Central Government employees
including Central Secretariat Service (CSS) and Central Secretariat
Stenographers Services (CSSS) officials.
Earlier, on the advice of Prime Minister, Dr. Jitendra Singh recalled
that DoPT had also introduced a new practice of senior IAS officers who
had put in nearly 25 to 30 years of service to revisit the place of
their first posting as District Collectors or SDMs and furnish feedback
about the change over the years as visualized by them. The DoPT and the
Department of Administrative Reforms and Public Grievances (DAR&PG)
are infact the Research & Development (R&D) organs of the
government and not merely responsible for carrying out only transfers,
promotions and empanelments. To this extent, he expressed satisfaction
that during the last 17 months of the present government, a number of
new reforms have been introduced with regard to recruitment in Services,
Pension Department, IAS/Civil Services training and other areas.
Dr. Jitendra Singh complimented Union Secretary, DoPT, Shri Sanjay
Kothari and Union Secretary, AR&PG, Shri Devendra Choudhary for
their proactive approach which motivated the entire team of officers to
carry forward the new initiatives.
