Is the PM's narrative on bureaucracy gone haywire? After calling for building confidence in bureaucracy and giving freedom to bureaucrats to work on innovative ideas in May 2014, Naren Modi seems to have got stuck in the wheels of his 360-degree empanelment procedure. And the result seems to be a discontinuity in bureaucratic leadership in several ministries and a lot of demoralization. So the question is: will he change his style of administration in prepping up for the 2019 national election whatever be the consequences of Gujarat elections?
