NITI Aayog or National Institution for Transforming India Aayog is the replacement of Planning Commission of India, marking the end of the Nehruvian institution that pioneered India’s five-year planned development approach.
The primary job of the new body—described as a Think-Tank—will be to advise the government on social and economic issues. Unlike the Nehruvian plan panel, the new body will not have the power to disburse funds to central ministries and state governments.
