I/c, NIRDPR and other officials from ASCI and NIRDPR.
Speaking on the occasion, Dr Kumar felt that both the organisations have unique strengths. The collaboration would be a catalyst in further synergising their operations through joint bidding of research projects, conducting of joint management development programmes, among others. He opined that the experience of ASCI may be leveraged, in view of increasing need of 'autonomy of NIRDPR' in future.
Dr Bagchi stated that ASCI has been a self-financing organisation since 1984 by conducting executive development programmes for top and middle-level managers both in government and private sectors. She mentioned that the MoU could be perpetual in nature. A core committee would be constituted soon to finalise annual action plan to achieve the intended objectives of the MoU.
