Hyderabad: The updated version of the book ‘Ethics in Governance: Resolution of Dilemmas’ authored by Dr Mohan Kanda, IAS (Retd), former Chief Secretary of AP, was released by Telangana State Chief Secretary Dr Rajiv Sharma at the Secretariat on Monday.
On the occasion, K Ramakrishna Rao, IAS, Secretary (Finance) and Director General, Centre for Good Governance (CGG) J Devi Prasad, Director, Agricultural Management Resource Group, CGG were present. The book published by CGG, emphasises on real life incidents to highlight the difference between theory, concepts and practice.
The book provides critical, up-to-date reviews and is about public service values, integrity and rationality of governance, ethics management and the ethics of governance. Ramakrishna Rao remarked that just as the Harvard Business School was renowned for its case studies, this book also provided a real value addition in the form of real life case studies that were also insightful, enjoyable and were with trademark humour.
Chief Secretary Dr Rajiv Sharma said the book was popular and easy to read and comprehend and was topical in nature - as judged from the importance and relevance it had in the civil services examinations. The CS added that the book was even more useful now and congratulated the CGG for ably anchoring it.
Speaking on the occasion, Mohan Kanda said ethics was an art and not a science to learn from a guru but something anchored in space and time. The book, he added, was substantially upgraded with the inclusion of new case studies. He also thanked both Ramakrishna Rao and Dr Rajiv Sharma on the occasion.
