The Council will take up the 'Inclusive Human Development Framework', anchored around four core pillars -- foundational human capital and future-ready skills; productive employment, entrepreneurship and decentralised growth; health, nutrition and wellbeing; and equity and dignity for all, an official statement had said.
Measures to promote entrepreneurship, enhance skilling, and create sustainable employment opportunities across the country will also be discussed, it had said.
The governing council will also focus on the recommendations of the 5th National Conference of Chief Secretaries held during December 26-28, 2025.
Generally, the meeting of the entire council happens every year. Last year, it was held on May 24.
