Friends, In accordance with a key announcement made by our Prime Minister Narendra Modi on his Independence Day speech, The 65 year old Planning Commission was on 1st January 2015 replaced by a new body, NITI Aayog, which will serve as a policy think-tank for the central as well as state governments and have the PM as it's Chairperson.

  37. A tie looks good on a candidate and indicates that you are serious about the interview. It shows that you took the effort to look presentable and professional. The panel will not reject a candidate if he is not wearing a tie, however they will be slightly inclined to take you seriously if you wear one. If you don't have a tie then don't stress yourself, just ensure that you look decent and smart in your clothes and give the interview with such confidence that a missing tie does not matter. If you have a tie, I would advise you to wear it.
    I attended the IBPS PO interview in January 2014 and every candidate was wearing a tie, one person was in a three piece suit. In December 2014 I attended SBI Clerk interview and few were wearing a tie while few were not. I wore a tie both times.

  55. from "indiatoday"

    The body that replaces the Planning Commission has came into being on New Year's Day.

    "Delighted to introduce NITI (National Institution for Transforming India) Aayog. It will provide key inputs on various policy matters," Prime Minister Narendra Modi said on Twitter on Thursday, the first day of 2015.

    He said the new institution will "emerge as an active and important institution that will play a pivotal role in India's development journey in the years to come."

    "NITI Aayog has been formed after a wide range of consultation with the various stakeholders including the Chief Ministers. A landmark change is the inclusion of all State CMs & LGs of UTs in the NITI Aayog. This will foster a spirit of cooperative federalism," he said.

    "Having served as a CM in the past, I am very much aware of the importance of actively consulting the states. NITI Aayog does precisely that," he said.

    Modi said that unlike the Planning Commission, the new body will not follow the 'one size fits all' approach.

    "Through NITI Aayog, we bid farewell to a 'one size fits all' approach towards development. The body celebrates India's diversity and plurality," he said.

    "A pro-people, pro-active and participative development agenda stressing on empowerment & equality is the guiding principle behind NITI Aayog," he said.

    "Through the NITI Aayog we wish to ensure that every individual can enjoy the fruits of development & aspire to lead a better life. A pro-people, pro-active & participative development agenda stressing on empowerment & equality is the guiding principle behind NITI Aayog," he said.

    "Through the NITI Aayog we wish to ensure that every individual can enjoy the fruits of development & aspire to lead a better life," he said.

    The body will serve as a think-tank of the government - a directional and policy dynamo, said a PIB release.

    "NITI Aayog will provide Governments at the central and state levels with relevant strategic and technical advice across the spectrum of key elements of policy, this includes matters of national and international import on the economic front, dissemination of best practices from within the country as well as from other nations, the infusion of new policy ideas and specific issue-based support," the release said.
