Prime Minister Narendra Modi aims to make India a developed nation by 2047, engaging states for direct involvement. At the 9th Governing Council meeting of NITI Aayog, discussions focused on enhancing collaboration between Centre and states to improve governance and quality of life for all Indians.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi underscored the collective ambition of making India a developed nation by 2047, stressing the pivotal role of states in this mission. Addressing the 9th Governing Council meeting of NITI Aayog, Modi emphasized the importance of participative governance and direct involvement of states, given their proximity to the people.

The meeting, chaired by Modi, featured discussions aimed at fostering collaboration between the Centre and state governments. This cooperative effort is expected to enhance the quality of life for both rural and urban populations by strengthening government intervention mechanisms.

The council, the apex body of NITI Aayog, convened with state chief ministers, lieutenant governors of Union Territories, and several Union ministers. The agenda also incorporated recommendations from the 3rd National Conference of Chief Secretaries held last December, focusing on better governance practices.
