MCA Holds Second Open House for PM Internship Scheme on March 19, 2025

In a continued effort to engage and support candidates applying for the PM Internship Scheme, the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) hosted its second Candidate Open House on March 19, 2025. 

This initiative reflects the ministry’s commitment to addressing candidate queries and concerns throughout the application process. The MCA has also announced plans to hold these Open Houses weekly, ensuring that applicants receive timely responses to their questions.

Structured Discussions Through Advance Query Submissions

To facilitate structured and effective discussions, candidates were encouraged to submit their queries in advance via a dedicated online link shared through email. This approach allowed moderators to prioritise common concerns while also addressing live questions during the session. The second Open House saw 340 advance responses, following the 423 submissions from the first session on March 10, 2025.

Panel of Experts Addressing Key Concerns

The session featured a distinguished panel, including Senior MCA officials, Deputy Director Nitin Phartyal, representatives from BISAG (the technical partner for the project), and members of the project management team. The panel addressed various candidate concerns, with frequent questions revolving around the selection process, eligibility criteria, and sector-specific opportunities available within the scheme.

The Ministry of Corporate Affairs remains dedicated to transparency and open communication, ensuring a seamless application experience for candidates across the country. By hosting these regular sessions, the ministry aims to enhance engagement and provide clear, real-time guidance to aspiring interns under the PM Internship Scheme.
