Legacy issues

The National Institution for Transforming India (NITI) Aayog, which replaced the Planning Commission earlier in the year, retains some legacy components. A bulletin board, inscribed with the Swachh Bharat pledge by Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Gandhi Jayanti last year, is still displayed prominently at the entrance of the NITI Aayog building with the name Yojana Aayog inscribed on it. The board, placed next to the attendance device, reminds one of a favourite French saying: "The more things change, the more they remain the same."
