Paralyzed by Policy Revisions ?

Following news appeared in today’s Economic Times :

POLICY SOON TO  RE-SKILL and  UPSKILL

Skill India may be expanded to include AI, IoT  

Dedicated curriculum to be developed across identified sectors.

Highlight :

Prime Minister Narendra Modi had launched the Skill India Mission in 2015 to make the country the “skill capital” of the world.

The aim was to impart skills training to 400 million people by 2022 through flagship schemes such as the Pradhan Mantri Rojgar Prohatsan Yojana, the Deen Dayal Upadhyaya Grameen Kaushalya Yojana and the National Apprenticeship Promotion Scheme.

However, barely 30 million youths have been imparted skill training. 

=============================================================

Target               >    400 million in 7 years ( 2016 to 2022  )        =    57   million per year

Achieved            >    30 million in 3  years ( 2016 – 2017 – 2018 ) = 10 million per year

Remaining          >    370 million in next 4 years ( 2019 till 2022 )  =  92 million/year

So, next what ?  >  Policy Revision   

                            Govt to focus on “ Reskilling “ in its second term

How                  >  Dedicated curriculum to be developed across identified sectors, such as

                             banking, financial services and insurance [ BFSI ], IT/ITes ( information

                             technologyenabled services), manufacturing, e-commerce, retail,

                             logistics , healthcare and telecommunication

                          [ Apparently, it took those “ Policy Revision Experts “  30 months to read

                          following what I emailed on 20 JAN 2017 ]

                    

                          UNIVERSAL   BASIC   INCOME                                                                             

                        WHAT WOULD BE THE RIGHT APPROACH ?

*  Right approach would be : " Do not give fish to a hungry man / teach him how to fish "

 In short , empower them to earn their own living by teaching them " Skills " and by

 gaining " Experience " in use of those skills

Entire cost of this " Skilling " and " Experiencing " to be borne by the Government , till

 each targeted poor / unemployed person , either gets gainfully employed or becomes

 self-employed

Should he choose to become Self-Employed ( by registering as a " Start Up " ), exempt

 him from paying Personal Income Tax for next 10 years

   WHAT SKILLS WILL GET PROVIDED IN ITI ?

Entire range of Manufacturing Industry related skills being currently imparted plus a

whole host of commercial skills required by E Commerce / Fintech / Agriculture Processing

 / Payment Banks / Service Sector / BPO / Telecom and other emerging sectors
