## ANSWER

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

- (a) The State/UT-wise progress in terms of number of candidates (highest to lowest) trained,  certified,  placed,  number  of  Training  Centres  in  Short  Term  Training  and  funds disbursed  under  Centrally  Sponsored  State  Managed  (CSSM)  component  of  PMKVY (2016-20) is given at Annexure .
- (b) to (e) Under Skill India Mission, Ministry of Skill Development and Entrepreneurship  (MSDE)  is  implementing  the  Pradhan  Mantri  Kaushal  Vikas  Yojana (PMKVY)  in  the  country.  PMKVY  2016-20  does  not  mandate  the  establishment  of  skill development  centres.  The  scheme  provides  for  taking  up  Short  Term  Training  (STT) courses and Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) through accredited and affiliated training centers  (TCs) throughout the country. Under the scheme, empanelment of TCs is done through  the  process  of  accreditation  and  affiliation  for  respective  job  roles  on  digital platform known as SMART (Skill Management and Accreditation of Training Centres). As

on  17.01.2020,  13,209  TCs  have  been  empanelled  under  PMKVY  2016-20  across  the country including 407 TCs in State of Gujarat.

Additionally, Ministry promotes establishment of model and aspirational skill centres known  as  Pradhan  Mantri  Kaushal  Kendra  (PMKK)  in  every  district  for  imparting  skill training in every district throughout the country. At present, skill training at PMKKs is being imparted  under  the  PMKVY  (2016-20).  The  Ministry  through  National  Skill  Development Corporation (NSDC) provides capital expenditure upto 75% of the project investment as well  as  operational  support  to  each  PMKK.  As  on  17.01.2020,  812  PMKKs  have  been allocated in 707 districts across the country; Out of allocated PMKKs, 723 PMKKs have been established including 34 PMKKs  in State of Gujarat. Funds disbursed for establishment of PMKKs in State of Gujarat are Rs. 9.4 Cr.

Pradhan  Mantri  Kaushal  Vikas  Yojana  (PMKVY)  (2016-20)  has  two  components known as Centrally Sponsored Centrally Managed (CSCM) being implemented by National Skill Development Corporation (NSDC) and Centrally Sponsored State Managed (CSSM) being  implemented  by  State  Skill  Development  Missions  of  the  States/  UTs  popularly known as State- Engagement Component of PMKVY (2016-20).

Under CSCM component of PMKVY 2016-20, there is no provision of State-wise funds allocation. However, under Centrally Sponsored State Managed (CSSM) component of  PMKVY,  funds  and  corresponding  physical  targets  of  PMKVY  2016-20  have  been allocated  to  the  States/UTs  for  the  implementation  of  scheme  through  State  Skill Development  Missions. Under this component,  Ministry  has  received  proposals from 36 States/UTs and after evaluation of proposals, Ministry has given in-principle approval of a total target of 20.18 lakh candidates and corresponding financial allocation of Rs. 3,050 Cr. for FY 2016-20. However, due to slow performance of States/UTs and keeping in the mind that the scheme is going to end by March'2020, the financial allocation was rationalised to Rs.  2,419  crore  (approx.)  with  the  corresponding  physical  target  of  12.45  lakh.  As  on 17.01.2020, Rs. 869.06 Cr. (approx) has been disbursed to 36 States/UTs including State of Gujarat.

Annexure

The  State/UT-wise  number  of  candidates  trained  (highest  to  lowest),  certified, placed, number of TCs in STT and funds disbursed (CSSM) under PMKVY (2016-20), as on 17.01.2020, is given below:
