However, Directorate General of Training, an attached office under the Ministry of Skill  Development  &  Entrepreneurship  is  implementing  a  Centrally  Sponsored  Scheme titled  'Enhancing  Skill  Development  Infrastructure  in  NE  States  (ESDI)',  in  partnership with the State under which Government of India is funding for establishment of 34 new it is in North Eastern States including 3 in Tripura State, as given in Annexure - I.

(c)    The  amount  of  fund  sanctioned  for  establishment  /  improvement  of  ITIs  in  the country including North Eastern States is given at Annexure- II .

(d)    The  Central  Government  is  emphasizing  on  outcome  based  monitoring  to  improve quality of ITIs. The release of funds to ITIs under 'Skill Strengthening for Industrial Value Enhancement (STRIVE)' for improvement is based on achievement of key performance indicator such as following:-

1.  Percentage increase in number of graduates at the respective ITI.
2.  Increase in female enrolment rate across trades at the respective ITI
3.  Percentage increase in total enrolments at the respective ITIs
4.  Increase in percentage of total trainees at the respective ITI who have undergone OJT as per the prescribed curriculum.

Under  ESDI  scheme,  one  of  the  objectives  of  the  scheme  is  to  strengthen infrastructure  of  ITI  in  N.E  Region  either  through  upgradation  of  22  ITI,  supplementing deficient  infrastructure  of  28  ITI  and  support  state  and  build  capacities  of  their  stake holders through training and innovation.

Also under Upgradation of Government ITI into Model ITI scheme an existing ITI in a State is being upgraded as Model ITI which will be evolved as an institution showcasing the best practices, efficient and high quality training delivery and sustainable and effective industry relationship.
