2022-12-26 Thread 'Sonal Jaitly' via datameet
Hi All,

Has anyone tried to use the National Data Aggregator Platform (NDAP) of
Niti Aayog, do you have any inputs on how useful it is for researchers and
what can be improved further to make the platform more useful.

Looking forward to any thoughts on this from the group.

Best regards
Sonal
