NITI Aayog is India's new think tank that replaced the Planning Commission. It was created to foster cooperative federalism and involve states in the development process. The document outlines the structure and objectives of NITI Aayog, how it differs from the Planning Commission by taking a bottom-up approach and being more advisory. In its first year, NITI Aayog focused on developing strategies and policies around key issues like manufacturing, energy, and poverty elimination through collaborating with states and other think tanks. While initial progress looks good, the success of NITI Aayog will depend on proper implementation of policies in the coming years.
