The Ministry of Parliamentary Affairs implemented Special Campaign 5.0 focusing on cleanliness, efficient record management, disposal of pending matters, space optimization, and promotion of paperless governance. The campaign began with a preparatory phase from September 15-30, 2025, to identify pending references, review files, and list redundant materials and e-waste.
During the implementation period from October 2025 to August 2026, the Ministry achieved 100% disposal of identified public grievances and pending public grievance appeals, completely eliminating pendency in these categories. In record management, 172 files were weeded out or closed, resulting in improved records management and freeing of valuable office space. All obsolete materials and e-waste were disposed of in accordance with prescribed environmental guidelines.
The Ministry promoted paperless governance through extensive use of digital platforms including e-Office and e-HRMS, while continuing efforts for wider adoption of the National e-Vidhan Application (NeVA) by State Legislatures. NeVA facilitates paperless legislative functioning, reduces dependence on physical documents, and contributes to greater efficiency and environmental sustainability.
To expedite disposal of pending legislative matters, the Ministry coordinated with Ministries/Departments and State Legislatures for timely action on Parliamentary Assurances, Rule 377 matters, and other legislative references. Follow-up communications were undertaken with State Legislatures to accelerate their transition to the paperless NeVA platform.
Regular cleanliness drives, inspections, and monitoring by senior officers were conducted to ensure achievement of campaign objectives and sustain established standards. The Ministry utilized social media platforms to disseminate information on campaign activities and achievements, promoting wider awareness of Special Campaign 5.0 objectives.
