He also underlined that the presence of a large number of officers, about 245 from Engineering background and others from technical streams, will go a long way in Good Governance practices as this government had launched various specialized flagship schemes which need special expertise like the Ayushman Bharat, Soil Health Card or the promotion of Inland Waterways.Dr. Jitendra said that officers have an opportunity to become the architects of New India, the foundation of which has been laid by Prime Minister Modi.

He particularly mentioned that a three-month Central Government stint as Assistant Secretaries for IAS officers in the beginning of their career started a couple of years back had helped adding tremendously in the capacity building.Dr Singh recalled that in line with the objectives of the “Mission Karmyogi”, online pre-Foundation Course was started with 95th FC and he also appreciated the new modules in the Foundation Course on Social Inclusion which covered aspects such as Gender, Children, Disability, urban labour force, and experiential activities such as breaking the barriers, power walk and visit to nearby worksites and places where people at margins were staying.In 2020, for the 95th Foundation course 428 participants from various services started the Foundation Course from 12th October 2020.
