The 'Swachh Bharat Abhiyan' led by the redoubtable Parameswaran Iyer has created an impact.

The thrust on efficiency and integrity in Railways by its erstwhile Chairman, Ashwani Lohani yielded results. One could witness the impact of the changes he brought about in the functioning of the Railways. He did not go to town with what he had done but it was all visible.

The team of Indu Bhushan and Dinesh Arora (subsequently on study leave), engaged in implementing the Prime Minister Jan Aarogya Yojana (PMJAY) as a part of Ayushman Bharat, provides another example of honest and efficient working.

What was done by a technocrat, E Sridharan to usher in the metro railway revolution is legendary

Hiware Bazar - A village with 54 millionaires

Hiware Bazar, a village in Maharashtra's drought-prone Ahmednagar district, was sliding into an abyss after degrading its environment. But in less than a decade it turned itself around into one of the most prosperous villages of the country. There was no magic wand, just common sense. It used funds from government schemes, to regenerate its natural resources--forests, watershed and soil--led by a strong village body. It had a role model in the district--Ralegan Siddhi, the village Anna Hazare turned around.

Now Hiware Bazar is in turn an exemplar for the whole of Ahmednagar district, where others have used the same scheme to conserve and prosper. neha sakhuja travelled the district and came back with an inspirational story
