In this context, Gandhiji insisted on imparting vocational training to youth so that they become self-reliant and help in making Bharat Aatmanirbhar, he added.
Addressing the convocation ceremony, Rajeev Chandrasekhar, said that skilling is the passport to prosperity and one of its aims is to strengthen local village economies and limit migration. Our Prime Minister has already reiterated the importance of skilling and multiskilling time and again. He expressed his confidence that with such projects will help the tribal community to start their businesses and generate more livelihood opportunities for themselves as well as for others. The Government of India has skilled more than two crore youth and given the opportunity for self-employment to many. We should always bear in mind that skilling is the only way to make the villages ‘Aatmanirbhar’ and pave the way for a bright and inclusive future, he added.
Ved Mani Tiwari, Chief Operating Officer, NSDC congratulated the students and said that the Grameen Udyami Project is doing a phenomenal work in multiskilling the tribal community and inculcating entrepreneurial skills among them to increase job opportunities.
