👉 New Deadline:
31st May 2026

👉 Condition:
Employees must complete the courses before submitting their APAR (Annual Performance Appraisal Report) — whichever is earlier.

📘 Background of the Extension

Earlier, the deadline (as per OM dated 18 March 2026) required employees to:

  • Complete at least 50% of prescribed courses
  • Finish the Comprehensive Assessment
  • Submit everything by 30 April 2026

However, several requests were received from:

  • State Governments
  • Ministries/Departments
  • Other stakeholder organizations

The reason cited was large-scale deployment of personnel for election-related duties, which affected the timely completion of digital learning modules.

📝 Why This Extension Matters

This extension is significant because:

  • ✔️ Gives additional time for employees engaged in election duties
  • ✔️ Ensures better compliance with mandatory training requirements
  • ✔️ Prevents delays in APAR submission due to incomplete courses
  • ✔️ Supports capacity building through the iGOT Karmayogi platform
