Tatas
to upgrade 225 Gujarat Industrial Training Institutes / TOI – 24 Dec 2020
Extract :
Ø
Tata
Group has proposed a fresh big-ticket investment in the State – of over Rs
7000 crore to upgrade Industrial Training Institutes ( it is ) . The move is
expected to bridge the demand-supply gap in terms of trained blue-collar
workers
TATA group has proposed the Public-Private Partnership ( PPP ) model to upgrade
the 225 IITs
Ø The Group has already tied up with the Gujarat Government for setting up and operating Indian Institute of Skills ( IIS )
Ø
Except for the admission
process, TATA group will manage all aspects of functioning of the it is for
five years
Ø
Ownership rights of the
Institutes will however remain with the State
Ø
TATA group has proposed
an investment of Rs 34 crore for each ITI and the total upgrade cost will be
about Rs 7650 crore. TATA group will bear 80 % of the cost, while the
government will take care of the rest
===================================================
There
can be no greater example of Corporate Social Responsibility ( CSR ) than this
!
I
urge,
Ø
All
large Companies in the Organized Sector to emulate the example set by TATA
group
Ø
Central and State Governments to examine my
following suggestions ( earlier
sent as e-mails )

MAKING INDIANS
EMPLOYABLE…………………………………[ 16 Aug 2011 ]
Suggestion :
What NSDC might want to seriously consider
is to request India’s reputed Corporate (Tata / Mahindra / L&T / Birla etc) to start 10,000 skill
development centers , in their own interest.
Also, how about handing over the
management of thousands of existing ITI (Industrial
Training Institutes) run by the State Governments, to these corporate?

Extract :
In Aug 2013 , India’s
Finance Minister announced a scheme called ,
“ National
Skills Certification and Monetary Reward Scheme “
Here
are the highlights of the scheme :
Ø To
impart skills to 500 million youth by 2022 ( i.e. 50 million / year )
Ø Of
these,
· Private Sector to train 150
million
· 18
Central Ministries to train 350 million
Ø Scheme will provide employment as well as post-placement hand-holding for
1-2 years

A Ticking Time-Bomb ?..................................[ 08 Feb 2014 ]
Extract :
Ø UPA-2 Government is trying to fool us by saying NSDC ( National
Skills
Development
Corporation ) will train 500 million youth in next 5 years !
Ø On the other hand, there is NO
incentive to Private Sector Industries , to
come
forward to invest in training these 500 million
- something that
would
require an investment of Rs
250 Million Million
Ø Private Sector has, required Money / Expertise / Organizational setup
to impart such training
Ø But that money is in the form of BLACK MONEY !
Ø So, what is the ANSWER ?
Ø Introduce a AMNESTY SCHEME , under which no questions will be
asked
as to the source of funds ( ie Black
Money ) , if these are
invested by
the Private Sector in training of India's
Youth , in prescribed Skills
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Make in India is
Skill-ing India……………………………[ 17 July
2015 ]
Extract :
An intake of barely 140 students per ITI per year !
But Skill India program is talking of imparting skills to some 60 million youth every year , for the next 7 years !
That would require some 4,40,000 ITIs ,
altogether !
Now , assuming that setting up a full-fledged ITI , would
require an investment of Rs 1 Crore , we are talking of a fund of Rs 4.4 lakh*crores
!
Governments ( Central + States ) don't have that kind of money
Nor will banks lend that kind of money to anyone to set up an
ITI , without assurance of adequate returns ! Banks are already bleeding with
NPAs amounting to Rs 4 lakh*crores and begging the Central Government for re-capitalization
!
There are two sources from where this kind of money can come
from
> 100 % FDI in ITIs
> Black Money Channelizing in ITIs
And, whether the investment came through 100 % FDI or thru
Amnesty Scheme, the income from operating an ITI , should be made tax-free for 20 years
Nothing short of an
" Out of Box " thinking will help !

Whom to Train ? How
to Train ?.............................[ 02 Mar 2016 ]
Extract :
In India , we have :
* 4300 Degree level
Engineering Colleges
* 700 Diploma
level Engineering Colleges
All of these colleges have WORKSHOPS equipped with different types of machines needed for " Skills Training "
These ASSETS are used / occupied only for a maximum of 8 hours (
daytime ) and remain idle for 16 hours
Through a partnership with these colleges, NITI Aayog should consider using these UNDER-UTILIZED assets for imparting skills to those who need
Such an arrangement will :
* Enable NITI Aayog to accelerate this program,
without a long mobilization time
* Save
thousands of crores of rupees in constructing new buildings / buying new
machines
* Boost " Make in India " initiative by making
available skilled manpower at short notice
* Increase ASSET UTILIZATION of scarce resources
* Foster INDUSTRY - EDUCATION INSTITUTES cooperation
through closer interaction
* Enable College Faculty involved to earn extra income
through charging PLACEMENT FEES to industry

Dear Presidents [ FICCI – ASSOCHAM – CII ],
For
incorporating in her next Central Budget, Smt Sitharamanji has invited from
you, suggestions for reviving the Economy. In view of the setback suffered by
our economy due to Covid pandemic / lockdown, you cannot be blamed if your
suggestions are for short-term measures for a quick recovery
But, the
only way we can partially insulate our economy from such future natural
disasters is by imparting skills to millions of our youth which will enable them
to become SELF EMPLOYED
Only way
we can impart such SKILLS to 60-70 million youth EVERY YEAR, is through active
/ aggressive participation of PRIVATE SECTOR COMPANIES, as demonstrated by the
TATA GROUP
Learning
from TATA group initiative, I urge you to draw up a FORMAL / STRUCTURED / CORPORATE – FUNDED / CSR based scheme
( Skills for Self
Employment ? ), and submit to the Finance
Minister for incorporation in her Budget
With regards,
Hemen Parekh
