A minister of state in Modi's government decided to call status meetings

Here's what a minister of state in the Narendra Modi government did when he realised that his subordinates were not keeping abreast of the happenings in his department. He decided to call status meetings. That would not be such a big deal if he didn’t expect his team to get together at his office every day. Every team member is required to come prepared with up-to-date information on his or her area of operations, jot down notes on what’s keeping the rest of the crew busy and offer suggestions and tips when a counterpart gets stuck.
