Government reviews Niti Aayog functioning / Time of India
/ 25 March 2021
Extract :
The government has tasked a panel of external experts
to review the functioning of Niti Aayog,
the think-tank that was set up six years ago and replaced the Planning
Commission.
The Niti Evolutionary
Committee, as it is called, is headed by Quality Council
of India chairman Adil Zainulbhai,
with Bain Capital MD Amit Chandra, Avaana Capital founder Anjali Bansal, former
telecom secretary Aruna
Sundararajan, founder of Global Alliance for Mass
Entrepreneurship Ravi Venkatesan and
environment secretary R P Gupta as members.
Given the five major tasks that Niti was asked
to work on, the Committee will see ,
Ø if there is a need to change its
mandate and
Ø if there are activities that it should be barred from undertaking.
It will also suggest three or four steps to
help the Institution’s evolution
The panel has also been tasked with,
Ø examining if the think-tank is delivering on engaging with States and
Ø if additional capabilities are required to be developed.
But the government has reiterated that the
agency will not be given
financial powers, something that the Planning Commission enjoyed
Besides, the panel will examine,
Ø if Niti is engaging with external experts and
Ø has emerged as a repository
of knowledge across sectors
Some of the panel members that TOI reached out
to did not comment but sources said that the issue is being pursued by the PMO
which is keeping close tabs on the deliberations

My
Response :
NITI
V 2.0 : a Concept Note …………………………[ 09 June 2019
]
Extract :
My suggestions re the revised role of NITI :
# Continue
with framing of POLICIES for transforming India
# Circulate these among the citizens and invite their comments / suggestions [
may be
online surveys ? ]
# Policy-drafts
should center around each item of BJP’s Sankalp Patra
# Drafts must contain clearly defined concrete STEPS / ACTIONS for achieving
measurable
end-targets
# For each STEP / ACTION , an individual or a department , must be made
responsible and clearly
listed
# For each such plan , a third party independent agency must be identified for
monitoring
actual achievements
# Such Agencies must be granted free access to all necessary government
records for
its assessment
# These ACTION PLANS must be made integral parts of each Ministry’s OUTPUT
BUDGET as per beginning
made
# Agencies shall publish their findings ( of TARGET vs ACTUAL ACHIEVEMENTS
), without
awaiting govt
# NITI Aayog must not , itself get involved in any IMPLEMENTATION of any
Ministry’s ACTION
PLAN
