(THE GIST OF PIB) Viksit Panchayat Karmayogi Initiative

(DECEMBER-2024)

Recently, the Union Minister of Personnel, Public Grievances and Pensions launched the ‘Viksit Panchayat Karmayogi’ initiative on Good Governance Day.

It is part of the broader ‘Prashasan Gaon Ki Aur’ campaign.
It aims to enhance the capacity and competence of Panchayati Raj Institutions (PRIs) by equipping elected representatives and officials with the tools and knowledge required for effective governance and participatory planning.
It is currently piloted in Odisha, Assam, Gujarat, and Andhra Pradesh.
The initiative leverages e-learning platforms, AI-powered chatbots, and mobile apps to bridge knowledge gaps and enhance service delivery.
This program aligns with the government’s broader mission to decentralize governance and foster participatory decision-making at the grassroots level.
The initiative is expected to create scalable models of citizen-centric governance, enabling PRIs to drive equitable and sustainable development across rural India.
