The summit seeks to advance a structured national agenda for strengthening administrative data systems and enabling responsible data harmonization across departments at the State and Union Territory level.
The consultative workshop aims to brief States/UTs on the objectives, scope and key issues for deliberation at subsequent State level internal workshops. Experts from government, international agencies, industry, think tanks and academia shall deliberate on various aspects of harmonization of administrative data, and showcase successful use cases in the consultative workshop. The inputs emerged from State level workshops will be deliberated upon in the national level summit in April 2026 to identify the priority reform areas on the subject.
The consultative workshop shall be attended by officers of the Planning and IT Departments of State and UT governments, officers from Central Ministry/Departments and other stakeholders.
