Prime Minister Modi Calls for Faster Government Reforms and Strategic Independence
莫迪總理呼籲加快政府改革與戰略獨立
Introduction
Prime Minister Narendra Modi held a high-level meeting with central ministry secretaries to ensure that government operations are aligned with the Viksit Bharat 2047 development plan.
拿倫德拉·莫迪總理與中央部委秘書舉行高層會議，以確保政府運作符合「2047年發達印度」(Viksit Bharat 2047) 發展計劃。
Main Body
The discussions focused on improving the government's administrative system to make it easier for people to do business and live in the country. To achieve this, the government aims to remove unnecessary bureaucratic obstacles and simplify rules to attract more national investment. Furthermore, the administration is prioritizing the use of new technologies, such as artificial intelligence and data analysis, to increase efficiency and make institutions more responsive.
討論重點在於改善政府的行政系統，使人們在國內經商和生活的便利性提高。為了實現這一目標，政府旨在消除不必要的官僚障礙並簡化規則，以吸引更多國家投資。此外，行政部門優先考慮使用新技術，如人工智慧和數據分析，以提高效率並使機構反應更迅速。
Regarding strategic goals, the Prime Minister emphasized the importance of 'Aatmanirbharta' (self-reliance) and the reduction of strict regulations. To stop different departments from working in isolation, he advocated for a 'whole-of-government' approach. Consequently, the PM GatiShakti platform was highlighted as the main tool for improving coordination between departments and making better decisions.
關於戰略目標，總理強調了「自力更生」(Aatmanirbharta) 以及減少嚴格監管的重要性。為了防止不同部門各自為政，他主張採取「全政府」方法。因此，PM GatiShakti 平台被強調為改善部門間協調並做出更佳決策的主要工具。
These efforts follow a previous meeting on May 21, where the Prime Minister stated that the Viksit Bharat 2047 vision is a serious national commitment rather than just a slogan. That session focused on evaluating ministerial performance and demanding structural reforms to speed up administrative work. Currently, the government is emphasizing measurable results and requiring ministries to share their achievements with the public to ensure accountability.
這些努力繼 5 月 21 日的一次會議之後展開，當時總理表示「2047年發達印度」願景是一項嚴肅的國家承諾，而非僅僅是一個口號。該次會議重點在於評估部會表現，並要求進行結構性改革以加速行政工作。目前，政府強調可衡量的結果，並要求各部會向公眾分享其成就，以確保問責制度。
Conclusion
The central government is now moving toward a model of governance based on actual results, using technology and reducing regulatory barriers.
中央政府目前正走向一個基於實際結果的治理模式，利用科技並減少監管障礙。
