PM Narendra Modi recently stated, “Transparency in governance leads to greater responsibility towards people and a sense of accountability, which in turn bring changes in work culture and impact of schemes.” He added, “Transparency in the system increases, there is more trust in the government.”

He added, “There are several instances in the history where information had been treated as a one-way channel, which led to serious consequences. So our government has been working on the principle of information highway and not one dimensional approach.”

Modi stated, “We are working on the five pillars of today's advanced information highway. They are ask, listen, interact, act and inform.”
