[New Delhi]PM Motivated IAS Probationers To Promote Public Interest Which is The Essence of Democracy
Addressing 183 probationers, P M Said “First and foremost duty of Indian Administrative Service should be to promote public interest – that is the essence of democracy”
The Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi, today urged IAS probationers to keep public interest foremost in the discharge of their official duties and responsibilities. Addressing probationers, including 3 from the Bhutan Civil Service, who called on him today, the Prime Minister explained that while bureaucracy existed even during the British rule, the key difference was that officers of that era worked to perpetuate the rule of the British, while in independent India, the objective of administration should be the public interest. This is the essence of democracy.
Referring to the teachings of Lord Buddha, the Prime Minister motivated the probationers to “light the lamp within you” – अप्पो दीप भवः He told the probationers that it is the inherent goodness that is present in all human beings, which will be the best guide for them in their career.
