In its economic roadmap for the state, the Madhya Pradesh chapter of the Confederation of Indian Industry (CII) has raised the issues of lack of accountability and transparency in the bureaucracy. | |
| Saying that the bureaucracy lacks a positive attitude, the chamber has pointed out that there is less interaction between the government and Industry and no regular review of project implementation. |
| |
| It has criticised the government for not having a performance measurement system to bring about a competitive environment. |
| |
| The chamber also pointed out non-availability of requisite infrastructure like air connectivity, air cargo, rail links, roads and power. |
| |
| Raising concerns over the law and order in the state, the CII said, "Local anti-social elements are getting political patronage." |
| |
| The industry body identified thrust areas like power, roads and airports and said there was a need for a comprehensive economic policy, sectoral policies, fiscal management and mechanism for continuous tracking. |
| |
| "The value added tax system needs awareness and consensus," said the chamber. |
| |
| The CII also floated the concept of a growth task force on a two-tier basis under the chairmanship of a Cabinet minister designated by the chief minister. The task force, the it said, would assist in improving competitiveness among local industries. |
