Description

Features of Cabinet Committees

Cabinet Committees are specialized sub-groups within the executive designed to expedite decision-making on complex issues. As outlined in Polity by Laxmikant, these committees are characterized by a limited membership of senior ministers, a clearly defined mandate, and the authority to formulate recommendations for the full Cabinet.

They enable focused deliberations on policy areas such as economic affairs, national security, and administrative reforms, ensuring timely and efficient government responses.
