From The Modi Effect, by Lance Price, pg 246:
To the horror of some officials, Modi even went so far as to introduce biometric clocking- in devices and a new online portal, attendance.gov.in, through which anybody could check on the timekeeping of civil servants. Some of the abuses exposed by the new regimen were astounding. In January 2015, the government dismissed a junior civil servant in the public works department after discovering that he hadn’t turned up for duty once since going on leave twenty- four years previously.
How long before this is seen in the UK?
