The instructor introduces the 'Structure of NITI Aayog' using a flowchart slide. He details five components: 1) Chairman (Prime Minister, Ex-officio), 2) Governing Council (PM, Chief Ministers, Lt. Governors), 3) Regional Council (2+ states/UTs), 4) Special Invitees (Specialists invited by PM), and 5) Full-time Organizational Framework (Vice Chairman, CEO, Secretariat, Part-time members). He points to specific text on the screen explaining the composition of each body, emphasizing the Prime Minister's role as the Chairman and the inclusion of state representatives in the councils.

The slide changes to 'National Institution for Transforming India'. The instructor explains the establishment date (1 January 2015) and nature (non-statutory, non-constitutional, think tank, advisory body). He highlights the objective: advising the Center and States on long-term policy based on cooperative federalism. He displays photos of Narendra Modi, Arvind Panagariya (Vice Chairman, appointed 1 May 2022), and B.V.R. Subrahmanyam (CEO, appointed 25 February 2023). A table at the bottom lists other members like Vijay Kumar Swarup and Ramesh Chand, concluding the overview of the institution's leadership.
The video systematically builds understanding of NITI Aayog by first establishing its structural framework and then defining its institutional identity. The initial focus on the Governing and Regional Councils highlights the cooperative federalism aspect, while the later section on key personnel and establishment dates provides concrete historical and leadership context. This progression from organizational mechanics to specific facts ensures a comprehensive revision of the topic.
