Speaking at the closing ceremony, Om Birla encouraged the officers to uphold the values of good governance, transparency, and service to the nation. He emphasized the importance of responsive administration in a democracy and the critical role civil servants play in shaping public policy and delivery systems at the grassroots level.
The induction training aimed to familiarize the newly promoted IAS officers with national policy frameworks, ethics in governance, administrative procedures, and leadership skills to help them adapt to their elevated roles in public service.
