Key Result Areas (KRAs), a concept popular in the corporate sector, will soon be applicable for Maharashtra's bureaucrats with Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis initiating the measure to improve efficiency and output of the state administration.
"The government knows what are the key result areas, as per its vision. To implement that is the responsibility of officers," Fadnavis said.
The KRAs will be linked to increments and promotions.

"If there is a fire once again, hundreds will be trapped," he added.
