NITI Aayog urges citizens to contribute for 'Viksit Bharat'
New Delhi: The government's think tank, NITI Aayog, urged citizens to actively contribute towards the realization of the vision for a "Viksit Bharat" or developed India.
NITI Aayog’s governing council meeting in Delhi was chaired by Prime Minister Narendra Modi with the objective of transforming India into a developed nation by 2047.
"The Prime Minister has emphasised that since the theme is Viksit Bharat, it is essential that you can't have a vision only at the national level; you need to have a vision at the state and district level," NITI Aayog chief executive BVR Subramaniam said.
The NITI Aayog meeting witnessed the absence of eight Chief Ministers, which drew criticism from the BJP.
The party expressed concerns that the missing Chief Ministers failed to represent the voice of the people in a significant planning meeting where numerous issues were discussed.
