## ANSWER

## MINISTER OF STATE IN THE MINISTRY OF SKILL DEVELOPMENT AND ENTREPRENEURSHIP (SHRI R. K. SINGH)

(a) to (e) Pradhan  Mantri  Kaushal  Vikas  Yojana  (PMKVY)  2016-20  is  enabling  large number of prospective youth for taking up Short Term Training (STT) and Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) through empanelled training centers / training providers (TCs/TPs) throughout the country. Under PMKVY (2016-20), as on 11.11.2019, 69.03 lakh (appx.) (38.01 lakh STT + 31.02 lakh RPL) candidates have been trained throughout the country.

Under  PMKVY  2016-20,  focus  on  employment  has  been  significantly  enhanced  and candidates  have  been  placed  in  various  sectors  and  industries.  Training  Centers  (TCs)/ Training Providers (TPs) are required to have dedicated mentorship-cum-placement cells for industry linkage and placement of candidates. TPs are mandated to organize Placement/Rozgar Melas every six months with support from the Sector Skill Councils (SSCs) and to  ensure  the  participation  of  local  industry.  The  scheme  also  incentivizes  TCs/TPs  for facilitating  placement  of  the  trained  candidates.  The  reimbursement  of  last  20%  of  training payout  to  TCs  is  linked  with  the  placement  (wage  employment  or  self  employment)  of  the candidate.  Additionally,  post  placement  support  of  Rs.  1500  per  month  per  trainee  is applicable for special group (women candidates and persons with disability) and special areas (LWE, North East region  and  J&K) for  2  or  3  month  post  training  depending  on  placement within or outside the district of the domicile of the candidate. Under STT, as per data reported on SDMS (Skill Development Management System), 30.21 lakh candidates are certified. Out of these certified candidates, 15.4 lakh candidates have been reported to be placed in various sectors across the country which is approximately 51% of certified candidates.

The  State-wise  candidates  enrolled,  trained,  assessed,  certified  and  reported  placed under PMKVY 2016-20, as on 11.11.2019, is given at Annexure .
