    ANSWER

    THE MINISTER OF STATE IN THE MINISTRY OF SKILL DEVELOPMENT AND


    ENTREPRENEURSHIP

    (SHRI RAJEEV CHANDRASEKHAR)

    (a) to (e) The Skill India Mission (SIM) of the Govt of India is aimed at Skilling, Re-skilling and
    Up-skilling to ensure our youth are prepared for the large number of opportunities coming up as
    the economy expands and India moves from the 10th largest economy to 3rd largest economy in
    the world. SIM is aimed at future ready and Industry ready talent among the youths.

    Under Skill India Mission (SIM), Ministry of Skill Development and Entrepreneurship
    (MSDE) delivers skill, Re-skill and Up-skill training through various schemes viz. Pradhan Mantri
    Kaushal Vikas Yojana (PMKVY), Jan Sikhshan 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 objective of vocational training programme is to equip individuals with market


    relevant skills for wage or self employment. The placements are specifically tracked only under
    Short Term Training (STT) component of PMKVY. Under the STT component of PMKVY, a total
    68.94 lakh candidates have been trained as on 31.03.2023, out of which 54.43 lakh have been
    certified and 24.37 lakh candidates have been reported placed which is 42.99 % of the certified
    numbers. State/UT-wise placement rate (reported placed as percentage of STT certified
    candidates) during the last five years is at Annexure-I. As regards other schemes, the third
    party evaluation reports have observed that there is success in terms of placement or
    enhancement of income of candidates trained. As far as the employment of the JSS scheme
    beneficiaries is concerned, third party evaluation report of the scheme observed that as an
    impact of the training programme conducted at JSSs, the self and wage employment and private
    job have become evident. 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 final report of Tracer Study of ITI Graduated (published in January 2018
    by the Ministry of Skill Development & Entrepreneurship, GoI) mentions that 63.5% of total ITI
    pass-outs got employed (wage + self, out of which 6.7 % are self-employed).

    In order to increase the opportunities for the placement of the certified candidates under
    PMKVY-STT, placement is linked with payout to training providers. The last tranche, i.e., 30
    percent of total payout is disbursed to Training Providers only on ensuring placement of the
    candidates. Rozgar Melas and Apprenticeship Melas are being organized at district and regional
    level. Further, 36 Sector Skill Councils, led by industry leaders in the respective sectors, have
    been set up by National Skill Development Corporation (NSDC). Functions of these councils
    include identification of skill development needs of the sectors with a view to bridge the gap
    between demands of the industry and skilling requirements as well as to determine
    skills/competency standards and qualifications and get them notified as per the National Skills
    Qualification Framework. In addition, to enable the opportunities for employments, Skill India
    Digital (SID) Portal has been launched as a one-stop platform that integrates skilling, education,
    employment, and entrepreneurship ecosystems to provide a life-long array of services targeting a
    wide range of stakeholders including Learners, Sector Skill Councils, Knowledge Providers,
    Content Partners, Training Partners, Skill Centres, Trainers, Assessors, Assessment Agencies,
    Awarding Bodies and Financial Institutions

    District Skill Committees (DSCs), under the guidance of respective State Skill
    Development Missions (SSDMs), play a key role in addressing the skill gap and assessing
    demand at the district level. The DSCs have been entrusted with the development of District Skill
    Development Plans (DSDPs) to promote decentralized planning and implementation at the
    grassroots. The DSDPs identify sectors in which employment opportunities and demand for
    skilling exists.
