The council, which includes all state chief ministers, lieutenant governors of Union Territories, and several Union ministers, will discuss strategies for fostering participative governance and collaboration between the Centre and state governments. Modi serves as the chairman of NITI Aayog.

The meeting will focus on the Vision Document for Viksit Bharat @2047, addressing key themes such as drinking water, electricity, health, schooling, and land and property. Recommendations from the 3rd National Conference of Chief Secretaries will also be reviewed.
