Removed own people, brought allies, understand the coalition policy of Modi government from the new entry in Niti Aayog

New Delhi: The government has reorganized the NITI Aayog. The commission has been reorganized after the formation of the new government and the inclusion of some new ministers in the Council of Ministers. There has been no change in the vice-chairman and full-time members of the commission. The chairman of the commission is Prime Minister Narendra Modi. However, members of the allied parties have also entered in this reorganization. In the third term of the Modi government, the BJP is taking special care of its allies.

Five ministers from allied parties joined

This includes five ministers from BJP allies – HD Kumaraswamy (JDS), Jitan Ram Manjhi (HAM), Rajiv Ranjan Singh (JDU), KR Naidu (TDP) and Chirag Paswan (LJP-Ram Vilas).

How important is the role of Niti Aayog
In simple words, NITI Aayog acts as a think tank for the Government of India. Making long-term and strategic policies for national development. Promoting policy coordination between the Center and the states. Monitoring and evaluation to achieve development goals. Providing assistance to startups and new enterprises. All these are the main functions of NITI Aayog.
