The prime minister has been emphasising reforms and has told his Cabinet colleagues in the past that addressing people's problems and ensuring ease of living should be the prime objectives of the government.
These issues are expected to figure in discussions during the 'Chintan Baithak', the sources said.
The presentations may focus on ways to make the policymaking process more effective and impactful. Discussions are also likely to cover the progress of government schemes, policy implementation, time management, inter-ministerial coordination and public service delivery, as well as the roadmap ahead.
