Central Idea
- The Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs (MoHUA) has introduced the ‘AAINA Dashboard for Cities’ portal (aaina.gov.in).
About AAINA Dashboard
- The AAINA Dashboard is envisioned as a permanent platform for ULB-related data, with regular updates.
- It invites Urban Local Bodies (ULBs) across India to voluntarily share their key data regularly through a user-friendly data entry form on the portal.
- The primary objectives of the AAINA Dashboard are:
- City Benchmarking: Enable cities to assess their performance relative to other cities.
- Inspiration: Inspire cities by identifying areas for improvement and showcasing possibilities.
- Peer Learning: Promote peer learning and engagement among cities.
Dashboard Structure
The AAINA Dashboard will categorize data submitted by ULBs into five key pillars:
- Political & Administrative Structure
- Finance
- Planning
- Citizen-Centric Governance
- Delivery of Basic Services
Data Submission Process
- ULBs will contribute their data, including audited accounts and self-reported performance metrics, by logging into the dashboard’s portal.
- ULBs will have the flexibility to update their information as needed, ensuring that the dashboard remains a dynamic and up-to-date resource.https://pib.gov.in/PressReleaseIframePage.aspx?PRID=1976720
