This session is part of the 'Special Capacity Building Program on Public Policy and Governance' organized by the National Centre of Good Governance (NCGG).
Singh highlighted that India's developmental programs such as PM Awas Yojana, Ayushman Bharat, and CPGRAMS are being replicated in Bangladesh, serving as role models for effective governance. The minister pointed out the deep historical and cultural bonds shared by India and Bangladesh, urging officials to identify twin districts to address common issues collaboratively.
