But somewhere along the way, this vision disintegrated, leaving behind remnants of a disoriented government, lacking the capability of being responsive to the needs of the people and serving them with a sense of concern.  In order to regain back the faith of the masses, the government is now trying to bring about a reform in its functioning through the process of `good governance'.  The current article provides a kaleidoscopic view of the various meanings of the terms `governance' and `good governance'.  The author, Gireesh Pradhan, IAS Director General, YASHADA, enlightens the reader regarding the core elements essential to build and support good governance. - Reproduced.  aPublic administration  aAshwattha  a51729  c51729d51729  00104070aIIPAbIIPAd2018-07-19hVolume no: 1, Issue no: 2pAR52157r2018-07-19w2018-07-19yAR
