Thank You , Shri Sisodiaji,
For what ?
For
rolling out “ Entrepreneurship Curriculum “ pilot project in Class 9 to 12 in Govt schools
As reported in :

Shri Sisodiaji said,
Unemployment is one of the biggest problems being
faced by our country.
The problem with
education is that in all schools and colleges, we are giving education to our
next generation just to seek jobs.
Biggest question
today is where are the job
providers ?
I have seen
entrepreneurship programmes being carried out at various levels in some
Universities and Schools but they are
treating entrepreneurship as a skill and not as a mindset
That is why, despite
so many programmes at various levels, we have not been able to produce entrepreneurship
mind set who will ultimately become job providers in the society. This is a big lacuna.
If we can produce
large-scale entrepreneurs in our country then they will not only solve the problem of unemployment
but also will help the economy grow very fast

Context :
On 19 Oct 2015 , I sent following email to
Cabinet Ministers / NITI Aayog :
Extract :
Some naysayers are bound to say :
" But entrepreneurship cannot be taught
Either it is in your blood or it is not
"
Then they will try to support their argument by citing Bania
communities
Accepting this argument , would be a defeatist attitude !
Here is how we can produce a generation of ENTREPRENEURS , 5 years from now
( if we start NOW ) :
·
Introduce " Entrepreneurship " as an
mandatory subject in High Schools
and Colleges
·
Each such School / College to be " Adopted " by a
Corporate ( CSR ? )
·
Each adopting Corporate will bear the full
expense of running this
course ( Teachers' Salaries etc )
·
Such expense to be tax-exempt ( or offset as Corporate CSR obligation )
·
Exams to be in the form of presentation
by teams of final year students
on,
" HERE IS A BUSINESS
I PLAN TO START "
·
Presentations to be judged by Panels
of Venture Capitalists / Angel
Investors / Incubators etc
·
Winning teams ( 1st / 2nd / 3rd prize ) , to be offered funds by the
Panel Members ( as seen in some TV programs )
·
Fund amounts should be small ( Max Rs 100 lakhs ) and preference to
be given to projects involving healthcare / education / manufacturing /
agriculture / food
processing etc
·
Winning Teams , setting up Start Ups with these VC funds , to be
encouraged to hire graduating students from the non-winning teams
·
This " encouragement " to be in the form of reimbursement of salaries
of
such hires ( only such hires ), under
" Employment Generation Subsidy "
from concerned State Government , where this Start Up gets registered ,
since , employment is a State Subject
·
Such Salary-reimbursements will be for first 3 years of Start
Up
·
To create an entire GENERATION of ENTREPRENEURS , we need
to start at the roots
·
Some years later , when this FIRST generation becomes parents of
their own 10 year olds, those SECOND generation youngsters will have entrepreneurship in their genes
·
This is one way of preparing a GM ( genetically modified ) Generation , to
which , there ought to be all round support

Dear
Shri Sisodiaji,
Congratulations on this initiative to
re-orient the very FOCUS
of our Education System from producing “ Job Seekers “ to “ Job Generators “
If adopted universally ( - with incorporation of my
above-mentioned suggestions ) all over
India ( by all the State Governments ) , we would have ready by 2025,
GM GENERATION of ENTREPRENEURS
