The Prime Minister will also check progress in the Pradhan Mantri Jan Dhan Yojana, the Swacch Bharat Mission for urban areas, the Housing for All by 2022 mission, the National Skill Development Mission, the National Health Mission and the Deendayal Upadhyaya Gram Jyoti Yojana.
Other such decisions relate to the National Ayush Mission, amendment to the Juvenile Justice (Care and Protection of Children) Bill, 2014, setting up three new All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) at Mangalagiri, Nagpur and Kalyani and strengthening of the drug regulatory system.
