What is Amrit Gyaan Kosh?
Amrit Gyaan Kosh is a dynamic repository of knowledge resources that captures and curates best practices in governance in form of case studies. This initiative is designed to reinforce the principles of Atmanirbharta, support the objectives of Mission Karmayogi, and contribute to the Hon'ble Prime Minister's vision of a citizen-centric, transparent, and accountable governance framework. Focusing on India-centric ideas, exemplary best practices, and scalable governance models, these resources serve as a guide for Group A, B, and C officials across Central and State Governments, Municipalities, and Panchayats.
Each case study is designed with precise learning objectives to enhance problem-solving capabilities and encourage evidence-based decision-making. Beyond government training institutes, this repository extends its reach to global academic institutions, enabling the exchange of India's governance experiences with the world.

Capacity Building through Advanced Case Writing and Teaching Workshops
April 2023
Organised a 3-day Case Teaching Workshop in collaboration with Harvard Business School for 30 faculty members from Central Training Institutes (CTIs) and Administrative Training Institutes (ATIs).
December 2024
Conducted a 5-day Advanced Case Writing and Teaching Workshop in partnership with Stanford LAD, Asian Development Bank (ADB), and Asian Development Bank Institute (ADBI) for 60 faculty members from CTIs/ATIs. Over 50 case studies were developed by participants and 7 faculty mentors from top institutions like IITs guided participants through the writing process.
September 2025
In September 2025, the Second Edition of the Advanced Case Writing Workshop was conducted for 75 new faculty members from CTIs and ATIs, organised across three cohorts in different cities of India. The program was led by instructors from Stanford LAD and IIT Delhi with support from ADB and ADBI, while 10 mentors from the December 2024 batch returned as Faculty Mentors to guide and support participants in their case writing journey.
Building a Cadre of Master Trainers
One of the central achievements of the program has been the development of an emerging pool of Master Trainers in the Government training ecosystem drawn from workshop alumni. 10 participants were selected from December 2024 workshop to mentor participants from September 2025 workshop. These trainers:
- Mentor new participants across India
- Co-facilitated the September 2025 cohorts
- Support institutes in embedding case-based teaching into curricula
