What kind of reforms do you think are needed to make Nepal's administrative structure people-friendly? Explain.

Administrative structure:

There is an administrative structure as a permanent structure of governance. The administrative structure of the state is the mechanism to effectively implement the policies and decisions made by the political structure of the state to operate and regulate the governance system.

The administrative structure is the main mechanism to bring the achievements created by the governance system of the country to the entire citizens of the nation and to distribute them in an inclusive and equitable manner.

Administrative structure of Nepal:

With the beginning of federal rule in Nepal, the administrative structure has also been divided into federal, state and local administrations.

The main function of the administrative structure of Nepal is to promote the sovereignty, integrity, nationality and national interest of the country.

Its main duty is to bring to the notice of the general public the services and facilities provided to the citizens by the three levels of government of Nepal.

For this, it seems necessary to make the administrative structure of Nepal people-friendly by improving it according to the time and circumstances.

Necessary reforms to make Nepal's administrative structure people-friendly:

1. Policy reforms

To make timely and adequate policy and legal arrangements and to implement the existing provisions effectively,

To make policy arrangements to transform the administration mechanism into people oriented, service provider and facilitator,

2. Institutional Reforms:

Emphasis on a horizontal rather than a pyramid-shaped organizational structure to make the administrative organization agile, accurate, simple and quick to make decisions.

To bring effectiveness in service delivery by arranging resources, means, technology and training for the enhancement of institutional capacity and administrative professionalism.

3. Financial reform:

To make arrangements for control, regulation and supervision to improve the opaque financial situation in the administrative structure of Nepal,

Making public administration accountable and responsible, using penalties and rewards.

4. Functional improvements:

Eliminate duplication at various levels and increase procedural simplicity,

5. It is important to improve the conduct and behavior of the employees through compliance with the code of conduct and the law.

6. In order to make the administrative structure competitive and capable, employees should be selected on the basis of merit.

7. The administrative structure should be made transparent, participatory and people-friendly through the use of information and communication technology.

8. The employee-oriented thinking of the employees should be transformed into a service-oriented spirit.

If the above mentioned reform suggestions can be implemented effectively, the administrative structure of Nepal can be made inclusive, participatory and people-friendly.
