PM Modi’s vision, captured in tagline “From Karmachari to Karmayogi,” echoes deeply with Odisha’s proactive participation in Mission Karmayogi activities in the State.
Around 50,000 employees and almost all departments of the Government of Odisha were reported to have been on-boarded on the i-GOT (integrated Government Online Training) platform by the end of November 2024.
The i-GOT platform provides a robust digital framework for personalized learning journeys, covering functional, domain-specific, and behavioural competencies. By leveraging this platform, Odisha aims to create a comprehensive learning ecosystem that enhances public service delivery, promotes accountability, and ensures citizen satisfaction.
Chief Secretary Manoj Ahuja has reviewed the progress of the i-GOT Activities in Odisha at Lok Seva Bhawan today in the presence of Additional Chief Secretary, General Administration and Public Grievances Department, Surendra Kumar, Director General, Gopabandhu Academy of Administration, G. Mathivathnan, Executive Director, Centre for Modernizing Governance Initiative (CMGI) Satya Rath and other senior officials of Government.
Soon after the signing of the MoU between the Government of Odisha, the Capacity Building Commission and Karmayogi Bharat on 23 October 2024, the Gopabandhu Academy of Administration, being designated as the nodal agency for the implementation of Mission Karmayogi, organised workshops for the nodal officers of all departments. Step-by-step guidance was provided for smooth onboarding on the i-GOT platform, with sessions by i-GOT (Karmayogi Bharat) officials.
The onboarding process is ongoing and it is expected that all the 4 lakh government employees will be on board within the next few days.
Help desks have been set up by the Centre for Good Governance, Odisha (CGGO), a vertical of Gopabandhu Academy of Administration at Loka Seva Bhawan and Kharavela Bhawan to assist the Departments in data validation and registration issues.
The Chief Secretary expressed satisfaction over the speed and scale of implementation and emphasized on the need for mandatory training to be undergone by each and every government official. This process will build the capacity of each employee which in turn helps in improving the delivery of services and the functioning of the government.
He further stated that the progress of the implementation especially the number of training modules undergone by the officials will be reviewed periodically at the level of Chief Secretary.
