Explanation

The Second Administrative Reforms Commission (ARC), established in 2005 under the chairmanship of Veerappa Moily, was mandated to suggest measures to achieve a proactive, responsive, accountable, sustainable, and efficient administration for the country at all levels of government [3]. Its primary concern was the comprehensive reform of institutional arrangements for good governance, as evidenced by its fifteen reports covering diverse areas such as the Right to Information (termed the 'Master Key to Good Governance'), Ethics in Governance, and Local Governance [3]. While the Commission did address aspects of the criminal justice system and public order in its fifth report [1], and urban governance in its sixth report on Local Governance, these were components of its broader mandate to overhaul the administrative machinery and institutional structures to ensure effective governance. The first ARC (1966) was specifically known for recommending the Ombudsman (Lokpal/Lokayukta) mechanism [1].
