Budget 2023: India can become skilling capital of the world, say ... (Economic Times)

Industry leaders and experts are optimistic that the skill measures proposed in the budget will open a lot of opportunities for youth.

However, says Kumar of TeamLease, the key to the success of these schemes will be in its implementation. The skilling ecosystem support will be key to transitioning these personnel smoothly. With this, we will be able to add another 100 million into the formal workforce over the next decade,” he adds. To cater to that, we need skills and this Budget has taken care of the skilling side,” he says. “This budget is like a booster dose to make the most of the situation. Earlier, we've seen a couple of skilling schemes doing well but these still underperformed the expectations. Lohit Bhatia, President, India Staffing Federation, says the government’s move under the National Apprenticeship Promotion Scheme was worthy of appreciation. India can, thus, be a good source for workers for these international centers. He confesses he was happy to read these announcements. In PMKVY 2.0, about 1.1 crore people were skilled and in PMKVY 3.0, about 7.4 lakh people were skilled,” Bhatia says. I think taking the macroeconomic situations into consideration, and having a long-term perspective to make a $5-trillion economy, these measures will take care of such goals. The scheme will also cover new-age courses for Industry 4.0 like coding, AI, robotics, mechatronics, IOT, 3D printing, drones, and soft skills,” she said, while presenting the
