India has witnessed transparent, sensitive governance model in last 11 years: PM Modi

Prime Minister Narendra Modi said on Wednesday (August 6, 2025) that his government is working with a holistic vision to rejuvenate infrastructure nationwide, asserting that India has witnessed a governance model that is transparent, sensitive and citizen-centric over the last 11 years.

Speaking at an event at Kartavya Path hours after inaugurating Kartavya Bhavan, the first of the 10 upcoming state-of-the-art Common Central Secretariat buildings which will house offices of all ministries, he said the project along with other infrastructure facilities symbolise India’s global vision.

The government’s administrative machinery for decades ran from British-era buildings, where the working conditions were poor and marked by inadequate space, light and ventilation, he said.

“We have to work together to write the success story of ‘Make in India’ and Aatmanirbhar Bharat. It should be our resolve that we will scale up our and the country’s productivity,” he said.

He added, “Kartavya Bhavan embodies the resolve to fulfil the nation’s dreams. It will guide the policies and direction of a developed India.”

He said it was also a moment for introspection as India could not develop at the same pace as many other countries, which got independence around the time it did and progressed ahead.

“It is our responsibility that we should not leave current problems to future generations,” he said.
