Now, one more thing the government can do to make NITI Aayog a professional and functional body that is “superior” to the earlier dispensation (Planning Commission) which it displaced is to allow the present team comprising stalwarts such as Bibek Debroy, V K Saraswat and Vinod Paul some breathing time to settle down and evolve an institutional strategy which will help the organisation stand on its own. To make this possible, the government’s support will be needed in making the organisation financially independent and also in terms of legislation, where necessary. M G Warrier Mumbai
