NITI Aayog: National Institute for Transforming India
On August 13, 2014, the Modi government disbanded the 65-year-old Planning Commission, stating that it would be replaced by a new organisation. As a result, on January 1, 2015, the NITI Aayog (National Institute for Transforming India) was established. NITI Aayog, like the Planning Commission, was established by an executive decree of the Indian government. As a result, it is neither constitutionally nor statutorily protected. It is a non-constitutional or extra-constitutional body, meaning it was created outside of the Constitution. It’s also a non-statutory organisation, which means it wasn’t created by a law passed by the legislature. NITI Aayog is the Government of India’s top policy ‘Think Tank’, providing both strategic and policy input. While creating long-term and strategic plans and programmes.
The new institution will serve as a development catalyst, developing an overall enabling environment through a holistic approach to development that goes beyond the public sector and the Indian government. The following pillars will be used to construct this:
1) Empowering states to participate in national development as equal partners; bringing the Cooperative Federalism ideal into practice.
2) An internal and external resource hub that serves as a library of good governance best practices and a Think Tank that provides domain knowledge and strategic expertise to all levels of government.
3) A collaborative platform for tracking progress, fixing gaps, and bringing together disparate ministries at the federal and state levels in the pursuit of a single goal to make implementation easier.
