Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan has emphasised the role of civil servants in spreading cheer among people who approach them for various needs. An efficient and pro-people bureaucracy is crucial for the development of the State, he said.
He was speaking while declaring the completion of training of the first batch of Kerala Administrative Service (KAS) and the certificate distribution ceremony here on Tuesday. As many as 104 trainees are set to be inducted in the State Civil Services on July 1.
Addressing the inductees at the Sankaranarayanan Thampi Hall at the Legislative Assembly complex, Mr. Vijayan said the occasion marked a milestone in the State’s history. The government has succeeded in realising a dream that has remained in the pipeline since the rule of the first government led by E.M.S. Namboodiripad, he said.
