The Federation of Gazetted Officers has resolved to inspire its office-bearers, who are officers from various departments, to evolve a better work-culture in their respective offices so that their image in public gets enhanced.
"We are aware of the fact that there are corrupt officials but only to the extent of 5 per cent. Another 15 per cent are on the border between corruption and honesty and the remaining majority of 80 per cent officials are indeed honest. But, our image as government officials has been maligned by these meagre 5 per cent officials. We have no hesitation in accepting that our public image is not good, if not poor," said Federation's General Secretary Sameer Bhatkar.
