Technical sessions will focus on the quality of Gram Panchayat development plans, earmarked and un‑earmarked grants under the 16th Finance Commission, revenue generation from own sources, and the empowered Panchayat portal. Uploading of plans on the e‑Gram Swaraj portal will also be demonstrated. In addition, an open‑house session will be organised for states and union territories to share experiences and discuss implementation and technical issues of the schemes.
Around 400 participants, including officials from the Panchayati Raj departments of states and union territories, Rural Development and Panchayati Raj state institutions, state nodal officers of the Jan Yojana Campaign, state and district programme management units, and officials of the concerned ministries and departments, will take part in the workshop.

Jan Yojana Campaign
The Jan Yojana Campaign provides a framework for Gram Panchayat, Block Panchayat and District Panchayat development plans and their uploading. These plans are prepared at the Gram, Block and District Panchayat levels and uploaded on the respective portals.
The Jan Yojana Campaign 2026-27, under the theme ‘Sabki Yojana, Sabka Vikas’, was launched on 2 October 2026 across the country with special Gram Sabha meetings. Launched by the Ministry of Panchayati Raj in 2018, the campaign assists Panchayats in preparing their development plans through Gram Sabha consultations, thematic planning, localisation of Sustainable Development Goals and convergence of various schemes and resources.
