The Ministry of Tribal Affairs has launched the Adi Karmyogi programme, a capacity-building initiative to train over 20 lakh officials across administrative levels—from state to block—to improve execution of tribal welfare schemes by enhancing motivation, efficiency, and purpose-driven delivery.

Key Points:

• Motivation-focused: The initiative addresses findings from the Adi Anveshan conference that poor implementation—not absence of schemes—is the prime challenge in tribal development.
• Broad Coverage: Aims to train ~20 lakh stakeholders, including 180 state-level, 3,000 district-level, and 15,000 block-level trainers.
• Training the Trainers: Establishes a dedicated corps of trainers at all administrative tiers to foster citizen-centric service delivery.
• Incentivisation: Designed to boost commitment and purpose among officials from senior bureaucrats to grassroots level for effective welfare execution
