Good Governance Day / Sushasan Divas
Every year, in honour of former
Indian Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee’s birthday, India observes
"Good Governance Day".
Prime Minister Narendra Modi 2014 announced that
"Good Governance Day" will be observed annually on December 25 in
memory of the former PM.
The Indian government decided that every year
December 25 would be a full day of work. The government has been commemorating
Good Governance Day every year since 2014. The day is celebrated to make sure
that the country's residents are treated fairly by the government and they
receive the advantages of various government services.
The purpose of Good Governance is to increase public access to various government programmes and services via good governance. It was established with the slogan "Good Governance through e-Governance".
