- (a) to (c) Pradhan  Mantri  Kaushal  Vikas  Yojana  (PMKVY)  does  not  mandate establishment of Skill development centres but enables large number of prospective youth for taking Short Term Training (STT) and Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) through accredited and affiliated training centers (TCs) throughout the country.

Under the PMKVY 2015-16, about 13,000 Training Centres were involved for imparting  skill  training.  However,  under  PMKVY  2016-20,  the  registration  of  TC  is being  done  under  single  window  IT  application  known  as  SMART.  Under  PMKVY 2016-20,  as  on  29.01.2018,  about  7,549  TCs  are  operational.  The  State/UT-wise Chhattisgarh,  Bihar,  Uttar  Pradesh  and  Rajasthan  number  of  operational  training centres and candidates enrolled under them are given at Annexure-I .

- (d) Under Centrally Sponsored Centrally Managed (CSCM) component of PMKVY 2016-20, during the course of implementation, it was found that target allocation has crossed the geographical ceilings in case of few States. Hence, it has been decided not to allocate further target under CSCM component of PMKVY 2016-20, till March 2018.
