Chief Minister's Good Governance Associates Programme

CMGGA Programme is a collaboration between the Government of Haryana and Ashoka University. It provides a platform for young enthusiasts who want to make impact masses at large scale while working closely with the public administration. The Programme recruits 25 individuals (23 to 27 years of age) to work closely with the Chief Minister's Office. Posted in 22 districts of Haryana, associates work in tandem with the Deputy Commissioners and district administration. Apart from implementing the flagship programmes of the government, CMGGAs are also encouraged to think of innovative solutions to some of the pertinent issues in their respective district and provide workable solutions for it. The programme is an initiative to bring systematic reforms and shifting from 'just governance to 'good governance' in Haryana. CMGGAs act as catalysts in achieving this goal and ensuring transparency and accountability in the administrative department.
