If one were to total up the collective number of years of experience among the audience present, a new Indian centre for governance was launched amidst several centuries of work in that field. The IC Centre for Governance was inaugurated in December in New Delhi, although it will function at Asia Plateau, Panchgani, in western India.

The former Chief Justice of India, MN Venkatachaliah, attributed the failure of the Indian bureaucracy to rise to the challenges of contemporary governance to 'the collapse of individual conscience.' India had made rapid strides in economic development since independence, but at the same time there were glaring examples of large scale non-development, with large numbers deprived of basic amenities. Cautioning all those involved in governance about growing unease in the country, he called on the bureaucracy, industry and academia to join civil society in endeavouring to create better governance.

A conference on 'Better governance - from fear to opportunity' took place at Asia Plateau in March.
