Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday inaugurated the first-ever National Training Conclave at the International Exhibition and Convention Centre, Pragati Maidan in New Delhi. Over 1,500 representatives from training institutes, including Central Training Institutes, State Administrative Training Institutes, Regional and  Zonal Training Institutes, and Research institutes are participating in the conclave. 


Civil servants from central government departments, state governments, local governments, along with experts from the private sector will also participate in the discussions. 






The conclave will have eight panel discussions with each focusing on key concerns pertinent to Civil services training institutes such as faculty development, training impact assessment and content digitisation, among others. 


The conclave will focus on the exchange of ideas, identifying the challenges being faced and opportunities available, and generating actionable solutions and comprehensive strategies for capacity building. 


The Prime Minister has been a proponent of improving the governance process and policy implementation in the country through capacity building of civil service. Guided by this vision, the National Programme for Civil Services Capacity Building (NPCSCB) – ‘Mission Karmayogi’ was launched to prepare a future-ready civil service with the right attitude, skills and knowledge. This Conclave is yet another step in this direction, said the Prime Minister’s Office (PMO).


The National Training Conclave is being hosted by Capacity Building Commission with an objective to foster collaboration among civil services training institutes and strengthen the training infrastructure for civil servants across the country, it added. 


Earlier in the day, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said that he is proud to serve a nation that is marching forward with undeterred resolve and asserted that every stride the country takes is a testament to the strength and spirit of the people.  


The Prime Minister's remarks on Twitter with the hashtag '9YearsOfIndiaFirst' come amidst BJP organising various programmes across the country as part of a mega public outreach to mark nine years of the Modi government.
