New Delhi, Nov 15 (PTI) NITI Aayog will launch a series of five national workshops on November 17 to draw lessons from 25 years of Prime Minister Narendra Modi as head of government, an official statement said on Sunday.
The statement said the series will study this quarter of a century of public leadership so that its lessons become part of the nation's shared knowledge.
It will document the experiences of those who were part of this journey and translate them into knowledge that benefits all.
Modi assumed office as Chief Minister of Gujarat on October 7, 2001. After serving for more than 12 years in that office, he assumed office as the Prime Minister in May 2014 and is serving his third successive term.
With the completion of 25 years on October 7, 2026, this marks the longest continuous tenure as the head of an elected government in India, the statement said.
Throughout this period, governance has been anchored in the idea of the Pradhan Sevak, under which every office of government exists to serve the citizens, it added.
The statement said the Antyodaya has set the measure of progress at the last person. Jan Bhagidari has made development a people's movement. The principle of Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas, Sabka Vishwas, Sabka Prayas has further strengthened this as a shared national undertaking.
According to the statement, the goal of Viksit Bharat by 2047 has provided this approach a long horizon, asking every institution to plan and act for India as it approaches the centenary of Independence.
The workshops will focus on the following governance themes -- "Leadership as Mission" in November 2026, "Governance as Delivery" in January 2027, "Development as Inclusion" in April 2027, "Civilisational Identity" in July 2027, and "India as a Global Force" in September 2027.
The first workshop, "Leadership as Mission", will be held in the national capital on November 17, 2026.
T V Somanathan, Cabinet Secretary, will close the workshop and launch the Karmayogi Sankalpa on the iGOT Karmayogi platform.
Around 900 participants are expected to attend the workshop, of whom 250 will participate directly in the deliberations. These will include 150 government officers, including secretaries and senior officers of the Union and state governments and district collectors of aspirational districts, the statement added.
