CBDT plans to celebrate 'Good Governance day' on every Wednesday by holding it as 'public meeting day'

As a part of PM’s 'Good Governance Day' promise to provide an "open and accountable administration" it has been decided by CBDT that all field offices of the Income-Tax department will observe 'Public Meeting Day' from 10.00 AM to 1.00 PM on every Wednesday with effect from January 7, 2015 to address the grievances of the public.

Further, the CBDT has decided that a suitable feedback mechanism shall also be put in place to record the number of grievances attended to and solved on every 'public meeting day', and to identify the deficiencies to avoid delays in redressal of grievances.
