Motivation Scheme for the Defence Accounts Department
1. BACKGROUND
The need for adequately motivating officers and staff at all levels of the Central and State Governments has been engaging the attention of the Government for some time.
Keeping this in view, the Government of India have introduced Prime Minister’s Awards for excellence in Public Administration in order to recognize extraordinary and innovative work done by officers of the Central and State Governments individually, or as a group or as organizations. A similar motivation scheme had been introduced in the DAD to motivate staff and officers to excel in their work. It has also been felt that instead of the HQrs office directly involving itself in the activity of nomination/ selection of individuals doing meritorious work, general guidelines could be provided to the Controllers to decide the Awards at their level while the HQrs office makes use of the database available with the Controllers to decide the Awards at All India Level.
