PM Modi Chairs High-Level Review Meeting With Central Secretaries To Boost Governance Efficiency

New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi led a high-level meeting with secretaries of various central ministries on Tuesday. It is to review government performance and discuss upcoming policy reforms. While the official details of the agenda remain hidden, but the discussions are widely expected to focus on structural updates and simplifying the ease of doing business across the country.

What are the key highlights of the briefing?
