The governing council of Niti Aayog, led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, is scheduled to convene on June 11, 2023. This meeting follows the recent restructuring of the think tank and aims to review the outcomes of previous discussions, particularly those from the last conference of chief secretaries. During the last meeting, Modi highlighted the importance of the 'reforms express' and the necessity to simplify regulations to enhance manufacturing and promote self-reliance. Furthermore, the council will consider the reforms agenda discussed by the Council of Ministers, which includes feedback on initiatives undertaken by various departments. The meeting is particularly significant as it occurs in the context of economic pressures stemming from the ongoing conflict in West Asia, which has led to a depreciation of the Indian rupee and increased prices for essential raw materials. Following the Niti Aayog meeting, Modi will also chair a session with chief ministers from the northeastern states, further emphasizing the government's focus on regional collaboration and development.
