How the exam will ask it

પ્રિલિમ્સ

  • Special Campaign 6.0 aims to institutionalise Swachhata and reduce pendency across government ministries and departments.
  • The campaign focuses on disposal of pending references, weeding out of records and cleaning of office premises.
  • NITI Aayog, the Government of India's policy think tank, has launched the 6.0 edition of the campaign.

મેઇન્સ

GS-II Governance: administrative reforms. Pendency and poor record management delay service delivery and reduce accountability; time-bound campaigns like Special Campaign 6.0 institutionalise Swachhata and clear backlogs across ministries. The way forward is to pair such drives with e-office adoption, regular record digitisation and monitored disposal timelines so gains persist beyond the campaign period.
