The AP government has taken a major decision to expose all the GOs (government orders) kept secret in the YSRCP government.
General Administration Department (GAD) Secretary S Suresh Kumar issued an order directing the concerned authorities to upload all secret GOs issued from August 15, 2021 to August 28, 2024, to the GOIR website.
The GOIR website was launched in 2008. Since then, copies of GOs have been uploaded onto it. However, orders issued between August 15, 2021, and August 28, 2024, during the YSRCP regime, were not uploaded onto the site.
The TDP and the Jana Sena had criticized the then government for deliberately keeping the GOs a secret. Now, the coalition government has decided to expose those secret GOs.
Kumar said that all official orders issued by the government should be made available to the citizens for transparency and information. If the GOs pertaining to that three-year period were not available to the public, there would be a lack of information, he said.
