RAS question
What is the name of the digital platform used under Mission Karmayogi for training government officials?
Correct answer: (D) iGOT Karmayogi.
iGOT Karmayogi is the digital learning platform used under Mission Karmayogi for training and capacity building of government employees.
Explanation
Mission Karmayogi is the National Programme for Civil Services Capacity Building. Under it, the iGOT Karmayogi platform was established for the digital training and capacity building of government employees. According to the Press Information Bureau, it offers courses covering domain, functional and behavioural competencies. Therefore, iGOT Karmayogi is the correct answer for the training of government employees. As of 6 March 2026, more than 1.51 crore users had been onboarded and over 7.7 crore course completions had been recorded. For RAS, it is not enough to remember only the platform's name; candidates should also understand the link between civil-services reform, capacity building and the official digital learning system.
Why the other options are wrong
- (A) DIKSHA is not correct because Mission Karmayogi uses iGOT Karmayogi, rather than DIKSHA, for the digital training and capacity building of government employees.
- (B) SWAYAM is not correct because the platform used under Mission Karmayogi for the training and capacity building of government employees is iGOT Karmayogi.
- (C) UMANG is not correct because Mission Karmayogi uses iGOT Karmayogi, rather than UMANG, as its digital learning and training platform.
Concept
This question tests how civil-service capacity building improves governance. It is relevant to RAS because administrative training strengthens the capacity to implement policy effectively. Candidates must also be able to identify the official digital instrument associated with a named government mission.
