THEME OF THE SEMINAR
Recently, many Indian states have enacted their respective Right to Service Acts, as a key administrative reform initiative. These Public Service Guarantee Acts build on the idea of the Citizen Charter – while Citizen Charters define the quality of public services, these Acts take it a step further by making a citizens’ right to public service within the stipulated time legally binding, failing which the concerned officials can be penalized. Although the legislative framework for these Acts has been established, the objectives of the Act can be achieved only by enhancing the actual delivery of services. This is contingent on several factors. Foremost among which is the need to strengthen the capacities of service providers
by creating adequate and efficient supporting infrastructure along with an attitudinal change.
Thus, the seminar topic poses a lot of challenging areas to be covered during technical sessions under different
themes such as:
Right to Service and Good Governance
Right to Service and Globalization
Privatization of Service Sector in India
Right to Service and Consumerism
Social Science perspectives of Right to Service
Technicalities and enforcement mechanism
