Cabinet Secretary Dr TV Somanathan wrote to chief secretaries, state advisors, and training institute directors urging bureaucrats to break out of routine and improve work culture.
Dr Somanathan said many mid-ranking officers requested practical guidance on routine administrative work beyond subject-specific training.
He warned against complacency, asking officers whether their experience is 30 years' experience or one year's experience repeated 30 times.
He advised focusing on small behavioural changes, self-reflection, and introspection to improve governance.
