Development agenda of 2022 to be prepared by June: NITI Aayog
Kolkata, May 17: NITI Aayog CEO Amitabh Kant on Thursday said the development agenda of 2022, "New India 2022", will be prepared by June and given to Chief Ministers.
"Development agenda of 2022 will be prepared by June and given to Chief Ministers. A number of other issues will also be discussed. Instead of the five-year plan, we are preparing a 15-year vision document, a development agenda by 2022 and three years action plan which is already in public domain," Kant said.
Speaking during an interactive session organised by the Indian Chamber of Commerce here, Kant said the government was working on a specific action plan and policy and there will be global summit on Electric Vehicles in September.
He said artificial and blockchain technology offered a lot of opportunities.
"India must embrace artificial and blockchain technology. There will be no shortage of jobs but different types of job. India needs to reskill its people... There will be higher paid and skilled jobs," he said.
Commenting on the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, Kant said the resolution for stressed assets would happen and the new mechanism would mature.

Justin Trudeau faces backlash for dancing at Taylor Swift concert amid Montreal protests
Ottawa: Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has come under criticism after a video of him dancing at a Taylor Swift concert in Toronto went viral, coinciding with violent protests in Montreal.
The footage, shared widely on social media, shows Trudeau enjoying the performance at the Rogers Centre on November 23. While the concert featured hits like "You Don’t Own Me," Montreal witnessed unrest as anti-NATO demonstrators clashed with police, set vehicles on fire, and burned an effigy of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
Social media users criticised Trudeau’s presence at the concert during the crisis, with some comparing his actions to Nero’s alleged indifference during Rome's burning.
The Montreal protests occurred during the ongoing NATO summit in the city, which focused on issues such as Ukraine and climate change. Demonstrators carried Palestinian flags and set off smoke bombs, with at least four arrests reported.
