Enjoy life, N Chandrababu Naidu tells bureaucrats

Earlier, conferences stretched on for hours, leaving the officials exhausted; there were murmurs that this was counterproductive.

Vijayawada: Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu was precise and friendly in his advice to IAS officials on Wednesday: “Don’t just work, enjoy life too”.

Mr Naidu asked the officials to spend time with their families and take part in recreational activities — subject to the condition that they clear all files.

Interacting with the IAS officials at the collectors’ conference here, Mr Naidu said the collectors can relax and enjoy themselves when there is no work. He said that would increase their energy levels and productivity.

This was a marked departure from his earlier interactions with officials at similar conferences; he had been known to be all business, focussing on administrative and financial matters. Wednesday’s conference saw the CM focussing more on HR-related matters such as employees' work environment and employees' work culture.
