Mission Karmayogi and Its Objectives
Mission Karmayogi, officially known as the National Programme for Civil Services Capacity Building (NPCSCB), received Union Cabinet approval in September 2020. It aims to transform civil-service training from a traditional rule-based system into a role-based and competency-based approach.
The mission promotes lifelong learning to help government employees develop the knowledge, skills and attitudes required for effective public service. Its digital platform, iGOT Karmayogi, provides a mechanism for continuous professional learning and capacity development.

New Capacity-Building Frameworks
The Capacity Building Commission introduced the Unnati Capability Index and the National Curriculum Design Framework (NCDF) at the workshop. These initiatives aim to improve the quality, relevance and effectiveness of training provided by government institutions.
The Unnati Capability Index is designed to support continuous monitoring and improvement of training institutions. Its reported features include a star-rating system, assessment of faculty, curriculum and infrastructure, and the potential use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) to identify institutional gaps.
The NCDF focuses on strengthening curriculum design so that training remains relevant to administrative responsibilities. Together, these initiatives seek to encourage institutional improvement and more effective civil-service capacity building.
