Ministry of Youth Affairs and Sports: Strengthening India’s Youth and Sports Culture

This demographic dividend must be effectively channelled with adequate opportunities for both personal and professional development.

Training Management Portal, Ministry of Panchayati Raj

When we think of governance, most of us imagine big offices, ministers, and heavy paperwork. But real governance, the kind that touches people’s everyday lives, actually happens in villages, in small meetings under trees, or in community halls where someone speaks up about a broken handpump or an unused ration card. That’s the world of Panchayati Raj Institutions (PRIs), and it’s a world that runs on the shoulders of thousands of elected representatives, many of whom are women, first-timers, or people who’ve never stepped into a leadership role before.

SOAR: Skilling for AI Readiness

Artificial Intelligence is rapidly increasing in the everyday life of humans. As the global demand for AI-related skills is rising, SOAR aims to create a future-ready generation equipped with technical knowledge and ethical and societal understanding required to navigate AI-driven transformation. This programme is part of a larger mission under Skill India, celebrating its 10th anniversary alongside the launch. The world is witnessing the revolution led by technological advancement, machine learning, AI, data analytics and automation. Unfortunately, Access to AI education in India has remained limited to higher education and elite institutions. The SOAR Programme breaks the barrier by introducing these subjects to classes of  6 to 12, including less resourceful schools, and by ensuring teachers are trained to deliver the subject. It aspires to build the largest AI-ready school population in the world, as declared by the Union Minister, Jayant Chaudhary.
