ANSWER
THE MINISTER OF STATE (INDEPENDENT CHARGE) IN THE MINISTRY OF SKILL
DEVELOPMENT AND ENTREPRENEURSHIP
(SHRI JAYANT CHAUDHARY)
(a) & (b): Under the Government of India’s Skill India Mission (SIM) , the Ministry of
Skill Development and Entrepreneurship (MSDE) delivers skill, re-skill and up-skill
training through an extensive network of skill development centres under various
schemes, viz. Pradhan Mantri Kaushal Vikas Yojana (PMKVY), Jan Shikshan Sansthan
(JSS), National Apprenticeship Promotion Scheme (NAPS) and Craftsman Training
Scheme (CTS) through Industrial Training Institutes (ITIs), to all the sections of the society
across the country. The SIM aims at enabling youth of India to get future ready and
equipped with industry relevant skills. The details of district-wise candidates trained under
various schemes of MSDE in Uttar Pradesh is given at Annexure-I. Details of Sectors/job
roles for vocational and skill development training being implemented under various
schemes of MSDE in Etawah, Kasganj, Etah, Bareily (in respect of Aonla), Mainpuri and
Kannauj Districts is given at Annexure-II.
(c): Under the Skill India Mission, the Government actively promotes training in
industry aligned courses for improving employability. Employers are engaged during
curriculum design and mobilization and are invited to participate in job melas and
placement drives. Notably, training centres establish local partnerships to ensure on-the-
job training (OJT), and placement support.Under PMKVY 4.0, the latest version of the scheme under implementation since FY 2022-
23, skilling is being imparted in National Skill Qualification Framework (NSQF) aligned
job roles developed by industry led Awarding Bodies. Training is also conducted in
industry premises and trainers are on-boarded from industries as well. On-Job-Training
(OJT) has been made an inherent component of the PMKVY 4.0. Focus is to empower
the trained candidates to choose their varied career path and they are suitably oriented
for the same. However, to enable the opportunities for employments, Skill India Digital
Hub (SIDH) platform has been launched to integrate skilling, education, employment, and
entrepreneurship ecosystems. To ensure active interaction between
establishments/employers and candidates, Rozgar Melas and Pradhan Mantri National
Apprenticeship Melas (PMNAM) are organised across the country.
(d) and (e): The challenges faced include mobilization of candidates for enrollment,
especially women in remote areas, mismatch between demand and supply of courses,
finding qualified trainers etc. These issues are addressed through local mobilization
efforts, demand-based training, better infrastructure, and use of digital tools for
monitoring.
Third party evaluation of schemes of MSDE have acknowledged their positive outcome
and mentioned about their success in terms of placement or livelihood improvement of
candidates trained, as indicated below:
PMKVY: MSDE’s flagship scheme PMKVY was evaluated by NITI Aayog in October
2020. As per the study, about 94 percent of the employers surveyed reported they would
hire more candidates trained under PMKVY. Further, 52 percent of the candidates who
were placed in full time/part time employment and oriented under the RPL component
received higher salary or felt that they will get higher salary compared to their un-
certified peers.
JSS: Evaluation study of JSS scheme conducted in 2020 has found that the scheme
has helped in almost doubling the household income for those beneficiaries who have
got employment or are self-employed after the JSS training. Considering 79% women
representation, 50.5% of the rural share, 73.4% change in the employment for
enhanced livelihood, 89.1% change in the average income of each beneficiary, 85.7%
mobilization of beneficiaries by JSS, the report has further observed that usefulness of
the scheme would be further evident from the fact that 77.05% of the beneficiary
trainees have undergone occupational shifts. The study also affirmed that the focus of
the skilling in the scheme favours self-employment which is in tune with Aatmanirbhar
Bharat Abhiyan.
ITIs: The final report of Tracer Study of ITI Graduates published in 2018 by MSDE
mentions that 63.5% of total ITI pass-outs got employed (wage+self, out of which 6.7%
are self-employed).
NAPS: Third-party evaluation study of NAPS conducted in 2021 has observed that
the scheme has successfully enhanced the employability of youth by providing
structured on-the-job training, with a notable increase in the engagement of apprentices
across various industries. In the new version of the scheme, DBT method has been
adopted to transfer government's share directly to apprentices' bank accounts, as
streamlined reimbursement process was recommended in the report.Annexure-I
