MOU with Ministry of Skill Development

MOU with Ministry of Skill Development

Posted o­n: 25 MAR 2022 1:32PM by PIB Delhi

An MoU was signed between the Ministry of Railways and Ministry of Skill Development and Entrepreneurship o­n 14.07.2015, for making available spare capacity of Railway infrastructure to the Ministry of Skill Development and Entrepreneurship, for starting Skill Training Centres for youth, particularly in rural and remote areas. As per MoU, the role of Ministry of Railways was to make available spare capacity of Railway infrastructure to the Ministry of Skill Development and Entrepreneurship, for starting Skill Training Centres, not for providing Technical manpower for organizing skill development programmes.

Indian Railways would contribute in Skill Development including making available shareable infrastructure available at certain way side stations, training centers, schools, institutes which are not operationally required and which can be made available to Ministry of Skill Development and Entrepreneurship and its representatives.

Ministry of Skill Development and Entrepreneurship would primarily discharge its responsibilities through the Directorate General of Training and National Skill Development Corporation that has been set up by the Government of India to promote and provide funding for skill development by catalyzing creation of large number of quality vocational institutions.

The Ministry of Railways, after the identification has been done by the Ministry of Skill Development and Entrepreneurship would decide to lease o­n No Cost Basis to make available the said infrastructure for the duration and the time period as may be agreed upon.

Ministry of Skill Development and Entrepreneurship through Directorate General of Training and National Skill Development Corporation would develop skill development programmes for candidates, who will be identified by various means like advertisement/publicity and finally selected by the authorized representatives of the Ministry of Skill Development and Entrepreneurship.

This information was given by the Minister of Railways, Communications and Electronic & Information Technology, Shri Ashwini Vaishnaw in a written reply to a question in Rajya Sabha today.
