Prime Minister Narendra Modi on
Tuesday said the "industry of red tape" thrives on doubt, while the
"road with red carpet" is built on trust as he highlighted the
people-friendly reforms initiated by his government to ease the
regulatory environment in India.
In his remarks at the India
release of the book "Red Tape to Red Carpet... and then some" here, the
prime minister said the most important reform for him has been to allow
self-certification in various activities.
The book has been
written by Gina Rinehart, the chairperson of the Australian mining
company Hancock Prospecting Group. Australian Trade and Investment
Minister Andrew Robb, and former Australian prime minister Paul Keating
were present on the occasion.
"I believe that a human being is
inherently good and he or she has to be given full freedom to make
choices. This is the foundation of our steps which we have taken towards
easing the regulatory environment in India. The most important reform
for me so far is to allow self-certification in various activities. From
students to entrepreneurs, we have allowed self-certification of
documents and processes," said Modi.
"For misdeeds of a small
number, we can't punish all the stakeholders. So, trusting the citizens
including the corporate citizens is the essence of our reforms. This is
the basis of our efforts towards transition from 'Red Tape' to 'Red
Carpet'."
"The industry of 'Red Tape' thrives on doubt. The road
with 'Red Carpet' is built on trust. I am thankful to Mrs. Rinehart for
highlighting the direction of our journey."
"This book reminds me
one of my old statements. I have been saying that the problems of
public administration will end if politicians learn how to say 'NO' and
if bureaucrats know how to say 'YES'. This is the reason that we have
devoted maximum energy on changing the mindset," Modi said.
"Our
LPG subsidy transfer process is the biggest online transfer in the
world. But it involves saying 'NO' to those who are not eligible. It
also involves saying 'Yes' and delivering efficiently to those who are
eligible. The good news is that it is working very efficiently."
