The Ministry of Skill Development and Entrepreneurship on Monday announced the launch of 'Kaushal Yuva Samwaad' aimed at creating an open dialogue with the youth across all skill training centres to hear their ideas and recommendations to help scale up existing programmes.
"We have more than one crore youth joining the mission annually. It is equally imperative for us to understand the perspective of our youth who are our biggest target group.
"Kaushal Yuva Samvaad will be the platform to discuss potential issues and solutions from the candidates' perspective and will give us the perspective to match aspirations of the youth with the offerings of Skill India," Union Skill Development and Entrepreneurship Minister Mahendra Nath Pandey stated.
To be organised between July 8 and July 10, Kaushal Yuva Samwaad is being organised across all Skill India training centres, namely, Pradhan Mantri Kaushal Kendras, Industrial Training Institutes, Polytechnics, and other fee-based training centres across the country, an official statement said.
According to the mandate, each training centre must invite a minimum of 20 candidates to participate in the dialogue. After the dialogue, recommendations from Kaushal Yuva Samwaad are to be submitted to the ministry through a portal.
