Replicate each others' best practices, PM Narendra Modi tells states

New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday asked states to learn from the best practices of each other to find solutions to problems and challenges that they face.

In one of its kind interaction with Chief Secretaries of all states and union territories, Modi said that different states were doing exceptionally well in some or the other fields and if their best practices were replicated across India, it could lead to great benefits for the nation.

During the event, Cabinet Secretary P.K. Sinha also asked states to promote competition between different districts.

"Competition between states being promoted by the NITI Aayog is very useful. (It) can be used by the states to promote competition between districts," Sinha said.

Kant said that efficiency in governance and administration alone will ensure that India's "worst performing" districts become the best, while its Vice Chairman Arvind Panagariya said that a strong India can be built through building strong states which could be achieved through "job creation, shift to non-farm jobs (and) large firms with high productivity".

NITI Aayog Member Bibek Debroy said that states needed to work on rationalisation of schemes in the light of 14th Finance Commission recommendations.
