The Minister recalled that soon after the Government came to power in May 2014, the practice of getting certificates attested by gazetted officers was done away with within two to three months.
Over 2,000 rules and laws were scrapped by the Prime Minister Narendra Modi-led government in the last nine years for ease of governance and ease of business, said Union Minister Jitendra Singh.
Speaking at an event organised by the Yashraj Research Foundation (YRF), Jitendra Singh said that, unlike the earlier governments which found comfort in the status quoist approach, PM Modi had demonstrated the courage to do away with such rules which were causing inconvenience for the citizens and many of which he said had persisted since the time of British Raj.
The ultimate aim of good governance is to bring ease of living to the citizens, he added at the event.
