Smriti may lead new department of skill development
Human Resource Development Minister SmritiIrani is likely to be put in charge of a new department of skill development and entrepreneurship, one of Prime Minister NarendraModi’s pet projects.
The department will ensure speedy and quality training to India’s youth, making them more employable. It will be carved out of 21 ministries dealing with the Centre’s skill development programmes and focus on Modi’s mantra of 3S — Scale, Speed, and Skill.
The programme will target a massive skill upgrading of youth, who, studies say, aren’t competitive in the job market due to poor training.
