Now even babus will have to achieve KRAs for promotion

In first-of-its-kind initiative, Maharashtra Government is planning to introduce Key Result Areas (KRAs) for state’s bureaucrats to assess their performance, just like the private sector.
Maharashtra Chief MinisterDevendra Fadnavis wants to give a corporate look to his government and ensure that top bureaucrats complete their projects on time.
The Chief Minister wants to show that he means business and has told the babus that if targets are not met on time, it would reflect adversely on their Annual Confidential Records (ACRs) that determine their promotion and career progression.
"We have a lot of projects and it's important that they are implemented in a time-bound manner. It will benefit more people if projects are completed within deadline, which is why we have set KRAs," he said.
Economic Times had an access to the KRAs, which were finalised after Fadnavis held one-on-one meetings with the bureaucrats concerned.
Another round to fine-tune KRAs to scheduled for May 27.
State government officials said the government was also planning to shunt erring bureaucrats, if they failed miserably to meet their targets.
Meanwhile, the Maharashtra CM said the babus received KRAs with enthusiasm and some even suggested that the current targets could be easily met.
ET reported that the state government had set different targets for different departments. The housing department, for instance, has been set a target of building two lakh affordable houses every year in Mumbai. The home department has been given a task of taking Maharashtra's dismal conviction rate from about 13% to 50%.
