## ANSWER

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

- (a) Under PMKVY 2016-20, 1,57,099 candidates have been trained/oriented in State of Gujarat  including  6,062  candidates  of  Rajkot.  The  district  wise  details  are  given  at Annexure .
- (b) 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 (SSDMs)  of  the States / UTs  popularly known  as  StateEngagement Component of PMKVY (2016-20).

There is no provision of State/UT-wise allocation of fund under CSCM component while  funds  and  corresponding  physical  targets  have  been  allocated  to  the  States/UTs under CSSM component of PMKVY 2016-20. Under CSSM component of PMKVY 201620, after evaluation of proposal received from Gujarat Skill Development Mission (GSDM), Government of Gujarat, Ministry has given in-principle approval of a total target of 77,824 candidates and corresponding financial allocation of Rs. 119.82 Cr. for FY 2017-20. Out of which, Rs. 35.94 Cr. has been already disbursed to State of Gujarat for the implementation of this component in State of Gujarat covering all districts including Rajkot. However, after rationalisation, the fund allocated for State of Gujarat has been reduced to Rs. 98.85 crore.

- (c) Under  the  Short  Term  Training  component  of  PMKVY,  the  placement  data  is reported within 90 days of certification of trained candidate. As per data reported on SDMS (Skill  Development  Management  System),  as  on  12.06.2019,  50,967  candidates  are certified  under  STT  of  PMKVY  2016-20  in  State  of  Gujarat.  The  number  of  candidates certified  under  STT  of  PMKVY  in  State  of  Gujarat  90  days  prior  i.e.  upto  12.03.2019  is 43,844. Out of these candidates, as on 12.06.2019, 24,136 candidates have been reported to be placed in various sectors.
- (d) Ministry  has  undertaken  various  measures  to  encourage  greater  participation  of industry  in  skilling  ecosystem  to  improve  employment  outcomes.  Employer  led  skill development is also being promoted to further improve placements rates under PMKVY 2016-20.

Under  PMKVY 2016-20, there are provisions  for  increasing  the placement  of  the trained candidates. 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. Further, 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.
