To transform key areas like technology, agriculture and healthcare and make the state a trillion-dollar economy, the Maharashtra
government has decided to set up Maharashtra Institution for Transformation (Mitra)
on the lines of Niti Aayog.
The announcement was made after a high-level meeting with Niti Aayog in Mumbai
on Sunday.
Deputy chief minister Devendra
Fadnavis said that Mitra will take studied decisions on various sectors including
agriculture, new technology like blockchain, and transport.
He said that the whole idea for the synchronised efforts is
to keep the state up with the national target. He said that they deliberated,
during the meeting with Niti Aayog officials, upon asset monetization,
innovative approach, EV policy,
and emerging technology among others.
According to
the officials from the finance and planning department, Mitra will work in close coordination with Niti
Aayog with the financial and technical support for the first three years.
“Niti Aayog
officials have assured us help with technological support like data analytics, data sequestration; policy formation, funding and to bring in development strategies.
We made a
presentation before the Niti Aayog and also discussed the potential growth
areas like tourism, sports among others,” the official said.
Dear Shri Eknath
Shindeji / Shri Dvendra Fadnavisji :
Congratulations for this initiative which will take Maharashtra to greater heights of
Social Justice and reduction of Poverty
While framing the ROLE of MITRA, I urge you to consider my following concept
note , sent to our Cabinet
Ministers and NITI Aayog, some 3 years
ago :
Ø 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
centre around each item of BJP’s Sankalp
Patra
# Drafts must contain clearly defined concrete STEPS / ACTIONS for achieving
# 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
# 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
# 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
With regards,
Hemen Parekh
