![]() With this, the Prime Minister is able to discuss the issues with the concerned Central and State officials with full information and latest visuals of the ground level situation, it said, adding it is also an innovative project in e-governance and good governance. Immediately after assuming office, the Prime Minister had shown his keenness to design a credible mechanism for redressal of public grievances, it noted. He was equally keen to see that programmes and projects launched by the central and state governments are monitored properly for timely implementation and desired outcome. With that spirit and for holistic development of the country, it was also felt necessary to facilitate from the Union government level the projects of the states. Accordingly, with the three objectives of grievance redressal, programme implementation and project monitoring, an IT-based redressal and monitoring system has been designed. It will combine data management and analysis, geo-spatial applications as well as video-conferencing. The application will be accessible to the Secretaries of the central government and the state Chief Secretaries. As the name suggests, PRAGATI is aimed at starting a culture of "pro-active governance and timely implementation", the statement said, adding "it is also a robust system for bringing e-transparency and e-accountability with real-time presence and exchange among the key stakeholders". Key features of the PRAGATI application include that it is a three-tier system (PMO, Union Government Secretaries, and Chief Secretaries of the States. The Prime Minister will hold a monthly programme where he will interact with the central government Secretaries and Chief Secretaries through video-conferencing enabled by data and geo-informatics visuals. While the first interaction was held today, it will be held once every month on Fourth Wednesday - to be known as PRAGATI Day. Issues to be flagged before the PM are picked up from the available database regarding public grievances, on-going programmes and pending projects. The system will ride on, strengthen and re-engineer the data bases of the CPGRAMS for grievances, Project Monitoring Group (PMG) and the Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation. PRAGATI provides an interface and platform for all these three aspects. It will also take into consideration various correspondences to PM’s office by the common people or from high dignitaries of states and/or developers of public projects. Union government Secretaries and Chief Secretaries will be able to see the issues pertaining to their Department/State;Union government Secretaries and Chief Secretaries have to put their comments and updates about the flagged issues within three days (by next Monday).Agency |

The controversy around Nestle's Maggi noodles has caused panic throughout the nation and it doesn't look like it will die down any time soon.
After the initial test results by Uttar Pradesh Department of Food and Drug Administration (FDA) showed harmful levels of monosodium glutamate (MSG) and lead in Maggi, various states across India and even Bangladesh conducted tests on Maggi to find out whether the food product is safe or not.
The controversy around Maggi has led to tests being conducted across the country.
The entire controversy began when the UP FDA last month asked Nestle India to withdraw a batch of Maggi noodles "which were manufactured in February 2014" after it found high levels of added MSG, a taste enhancer, in the noodles and lead beyond permissible limits.
