The document proposes Employability Enhancement Bonds (EEBs) and an online platform called KarmaNet to increase the employability of Indian youth. EEBs would allow the government to raise capital from private investors for skill development programs run by independent parties. KarmaNet would connect unemployed youth registered in the database with training opportunities based on their skills and the industry's demand. Investor returns and payments to training providers would depend on an independent evaluator's assessment of whether the programs achieved desired employment outcomes. This performance-based model aims to ensure funds are only spent on effective training programs and sufficient funds are raised to scale up skill development across India.

The document discusses the state of education in India. It notes that while primary education is a right in India, demand for education exceeds supply in terms of both access and quality at all levels. The key challenges are to increase access to primary education, dramatically improve education quality with a focus on early reading skills, teacher quality, and accountability, and address issues in secondary, vocational, technical, and higher education like access gaps, curriculum overload, and lack of relevance to employment needs. The government of India has made universal elementary education an unprecedented priority through programs like Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan, with major financial resources allocated through an education cess.

The document discusses ensuring world-class civic amenities in urban India through inclusive growth. It notes that traditional municipal bodies have focused on basic services like water, sanitation, roads, and waste management. However, some amenities are often neglected due to issues like lack of education, healthcare access, malnutrition, corruption and flaws in public service systems. Improving education, healthcare infrastructure, and addressing corruption could help reduce inequalities. Urban development must also ensure sufficient housing, transportation, and employment opportunities as India's urban population grows dramatically in the coming decades.

The Public Distribution System in India faces challenges of inefficiency and corruption. Key issues include storage problems that result in 20-30% of food grains being wasted, illegal diversion of supplies meant for poor citizens to the open market, and leakages that mean only 0.12 rupees of every 1 rupee invested in PDS reaches the poor. Solutions proposed include increasing storage capacity, implementing an online tracking system to monitor inventory and prevent diversion, making the identification of below poverty line families more transparent, and creating awareness among citizens about their rights and entitlements through various outreach methods. Improving oversight and reducing opportunities for corruption could help plug leaks and make the PDS more effective in reaching those it aims to support.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
