Why in the news

A parliamentary panel on finance placed its report before Parliament on 31 July 2025, covering the PM’s Internship Scheme (PMIS), the insolvency law and tax disputes.

Key facts

  • PMIS funds: enough for the pilot phase, but they need fresh review when the scheme scales.
  • PMIS gaps: exclusion of government-employee families judged excessive; thin reach among SMEs, startups and regional bodies.
  • PMIS fixes sought: independent periodic evaluation, relaxed eligibility for poor and marginalised youth, a monitoring framework, wider sector and regional spread.
  • IBC problem: slow resolution and growing backlog at NCLTs.

Way forward

  • Stronger NCLT infrastructure and public-private models inspired by Seva Kendras.
  • Ministry of Corporate Affairs agreed to start reforms.

Exam angle

  • Panel head: Bhartruhari Mahtab.
