- (d)    Yes, Sir.

(e) Empanelled  training  centres  of  PMKVY  are  being  monitored  effectively through  various  methodologies  including  information  technology  (IT)  interventions and  measures,  namely,  self-audit  reporting,  call  validations,  surprise  visits  and monitoring  through  the  Skills  Development  Management  System  (SDMS),  Skill Management  and  Accreditation  of  Training  Centres  (SMART),  Aadhaar  Enabled Biometric  Attendance  System  (AEBAS),  social  media  platform,  etc.  Under  the scheme,  PMKVY  Monitoring  Committee  review  and  formulate  framework  on  the critical cases related to monitoring issues of the stakeholders. Also, the Committee has formulated penalty grid (approved by Steering Committee for PMKVY)  for taking action against erring / non-compliant training centres / stakeholders. Based on the penalty  grid,  National  Skill  Development  Corporation  (NSDC),  the  implementing agency of PMKVY under MSDE, has suspended training centres for non-compliance of  PMKVY guidelines on multiple parameters and periodically publishes the list on PMKVY  official website. So far, 306 Training Centres (TCs) have been suspended across the different locations. Regional Directorate of Skill Development & Entrepreneurship  (RDSDEs)  is  continuously  monitoring  CTS.    Directorate  of  Jan Shikshan  Sansthan  is  monitoring  the  JSS  scheme  through  review  meetings  and online  web portal (jss.gov.in).    Action  has  been  taken  against  4  JSSs  (since  July, 2018), i.e., 4 JSSs have been closed, not having up to date information or against which  complaints  were  received.  Actions  are  taken  against  ITIs  also,  on  similar grounds. Under Apprenticeship scheme, State Apprenticeship Advisors and Assistant  Apprenticeship  Advisors  monitors  the  scheme  at  state  level.  Regional Apprenticeship Advisor from Central Govt can also inspect these establishments for compliance and training quality.
