Public policy is about achieving objectives of the society and a nation's citizens. It is intentional, decisional, as well as political in its nature, expressing the electoral and program priorities of the government. In recent times the term has evolved to mean a framework of policies and practices that ensure accountability and fairness in the relationship between the government and all the societal stakeholders. On similar lines, governance was thought of as a socio - political concept that applied only to large public institutions. Today it is increasingly being seen and applied as a basic management practice in public institutions of all sizes. It is best described as the government policies and processes that are used to ensure efficient operations and fair and timely decision making.
