The Arunachal Pradesh Administrative‑Reform Commission has handed over its inaugural report, outlining recommendations for streamlining the state’s bureaucracy.
The Arunachal Pradesh Administrative‑Reform Commission, set up to evaluate and modernise the state’s civil services, has submitted its first comprehensive report to the state government. The document, compiled after months of consultations with officials, experts and civil‑society representatives, proposes a range of measures aimed at improving efficiency, transparency and accountability in administrative processes.
Key recommendations include restructuring departmental hierarchies, introducing performance‑based appraisal systems, and leveraging digital tools for service delivery. The commission also suggests revising recruitment norms to attract talent from diverse backgrounds and enhancing training programmes for existing staff.
State officials have acknowledged receipt of the report and indicated that a detailed review will be undertaken in the coming weeks. If adopted, the proposals could reshape the functioning of government departments across Arunachal Pradesh, aligning them with contemporary governance standards.
The commission’s work marks the first major step in a broader reform agenda announced by the state government earlier this year, signalling a commitment to overhaul bureaucratic practices and improve public service outcomes.
