Jaipur, February 2026 : A key review meeting on the effective implementation of Compliance Reduction and De-regulation Phase-2 was held on Friday at the Secretariat under the chairmanship of Chief Secretary V. Srinivas. The Chief Secretary said that the state government has performed well in all priority areas identified under Phase-1 and stressed that Rajasthan must ensure similar performance in the second phase as well. He directed concerned departments to prepare and submit the Phase-2 action plan by February 10.

Shri Srinivas stated that the core objective of these reforms is to eliminate unnecessary rules and complex procedures and to create a simple, transparent, and efficient system for citizens, industries, and entrepreneurs. Compliance reduction and de-regulation will improve the speed and quality of services and bring positive changes to the state’s administrative and economic framework.

This would particularly benefit startups, MSMEs, and new entrepreneurs by saving time, cost, and resources.
