## ANSWER

## MINISTER OF STATE IN THE MINISTRY OF SKILL DEVELOPMENT AND ENTREPRENEURSHIP (SHRI RAJEEV CHANDRASEKHAR)

(a)       Under  Skill  India  Mission,  Ministry  is  delivering  the  skills  to  the  youth  across  the country  through  its  flagship  scheme  Pradhan  Mantri  Kaushal  Vikas  Yojana  (PMKVY). PMKVY (except PMKVY 1.0 (2015-16)) has two components, namely, Central component being  implemented  through  National  Skill  Development  Corporation  (NSDC),  and  State component being implemented through State Skill  Development  Mission  (SSDM)  of  the State/UT. Under Central component of PMKVY, there is no provision of State-wise funds allocation. Since inception of the PMKVY, i.e., 2015, as on 31.12.2021, an amount of Rs. 8,590.29  crore  has  been  disbursed  to  implementing  agency,  i.e.,  NSDC  towards  the implementation of the scheme.

Under State component of PMKVY, funds and corresponding physical targets have been  allocated  to  the  States  for  the  implementation  of  scheme  through  SSDMs.  Since incorporation of State component, i.e., 2016, as on 31.12.2021, an amount of Rs. 1,224.82 crore has been disbursed to States for the implementation of the scheme. The State-wise funds allocated, disbursed and utilized by the State under PMKVY 2.0 and PMKVY 3.0, as on 31.12.2021, is given at Annexure.

(b)       Under  PMKVY,  placement  is  not  mandatory  component.  However,  in  order  to enhance the placement under the short term training of PMKVY, placement is linked with payout to training providers. The last tranche, i.e., 30 percent of total payout is disbursed to training providers only on ensuring placement of the candidates.  Also, Rozgar Melas are organised with the support of Sector Skill Councils, training providers and implementing agencies to directly link the candidates with the potential employers.

Further, based on the learning from implementation of PMKVY 1.0 (2015-16) and 2.0 (2016-20), the orientation of the scheme has been changed from being supply driven to  demand  driven  under  PMKVY  3.0.  The  demand  driven  and  bottom-up  approach  has been provisioned to boost demand for job roles which are prevailing at regional/local level. In  addition,  informed  choices  /  aspirations  of  the  candidates  have  been  given  primacy which aims to support the self-employment as well. This scheme also supports the vision of Atmanirbhar Bharat by encouraging candidates to opt for local skills with local jobs.

Ministry  has  also  launched  Aatmanirbhar  Skilled  Employees  Employer  Mapping (ASEEM)  portal,  which  acts  as  a  central  directory  of  skilled  workforce  registered  and certified under Skill India Portal (SIP), across all schemes at central and state level.

(c)        The  number  of  candidates  trained,  assessed  and  certified  under  PMKVY,  since inception, i.e., 2015, in the Hazaribagh district of State of Jharkhand is given below:

| Trained   | Assessed   | Certified   |
|-----------|------------|-------------|
| 24,887    | 22,836     | 19,801      |

Dropouts have been observed at various stages in the training life cycle. Reasons for decreasing numbers at different stages of training are given below:

- Enrolment vs Training: After registration of candidates on the portal,  some candidates  are  unable  to  turn  up  for  the  training  and  some  candidates  drop  out during the training period.
- Training vs Assessment: This  difference  is  largely  attributed  to  trained  candidates not appearing for assessment.
- Assessment  vs  Certification: The  reason  for  the  gap  in  number  of  candidates assessed  and  candidates  certified  is  attributed  to  the  failure  of  candidates  in assessment tests.
