Through this mission, the government employees must modernize their thinking, approach and improve their skill set. It is to give them an opportunity to become a Karmayogi.
The Government of India has constituted Capacity Building Commission (CBC) with a view to drive standardization and harmonization across the Indian civil services landscape. CBC has been set up under ‘Mission Karmayogi’ to create India’s own Civil Service Competency Framework which priorities India’s development aspirations by creating accountability and transparency in our everyday working.

These initiatives will ensure that competencies are built in our ecosystem for effective public service delivery for India’s citizens, enabling policies conducive to economic growth and will promote “role-based” learning rather than “rule-based” and “competency-based” learning.
