## ANSWER

THE MINISTER OF STATE IN THE MINISTRY OF SKILL DEVELOPMENT AND ENTREPRENEURSHIP

(SHRI RAJEEV CHANDRASEKHAR)

- (a)       Under  the  Govt.  of  India,  Skill  India  Mission  (SIM),  the  Ministry  of  Skill  Development  and Entrepreneurship (MSDE) provides skilling, re-skilling and up-skilling all young Indians through a comprehensive  network  of  Centres/Institutes  across  the  country  under  various  schemes  viz. Pradhan Mantri Kaushal Vikas Yojana (PMKVY), Scheme of Support to Jan Sikhshan Sansthan (JSS),  National  Apprenticeship  Promotion  Scheme  (NAPS)   and  Craftsman  Training  Scheme (CTS) through Industrial Training Institutes (ITIs).

For integration  and  mainstreaming of vocational education  with general education  as  envisaged under  the  National  Education  Policy,  2020  (NEP,  2020),  Ministry  of  Skill  Development  and Entrepreneurship (MSDE) under Pradhan Mantri Kaushal Vikas Yojana (PMKVY) has set up Skill Hubs in the educational institutions. The Skill Hubs are being setup  in  Government and  Private Schools, Colleges, Universities (including Skill Universities) and other Higher Education Institutions with  an  aim  to  utilize  the  permanent  infrastructure  and  other  resources  available  at  these educational institutions. The State-wise details of Skill Hubs set up under Pradhan Mantri Kaushal Vikas Yojana 4.0 (PMKVY 4.0) in the country, including in the State of Maharashtra, are given at Annexure.

- (b) As per the Report Migration in India, 2020-21, based on the PLFS 2020-21, released by Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation (MoSPI), the total migration rate in India was

28.9%. Out of total migrant persons, around 10.8% persons migrated due to employment related reasons. (c) to (h) Setting up of Skill Hubs is an ongoing and continuous process. Skill Hubs are set up to cater to the local demand for skilling of the region as per District Skill Development Plans. Under PMKVY, as on 31.10.2023, 122 Skill Hubs have been established in the State of Maharashtra. As Skill Hubs are set up in the available infrastructure of the educational institutions, no separate fund has been allocated for the establishment of the Skill Hubs under PMKVY. Only the cost of skill training  is  being  reimbursed  to  these  Skill  Hubs  as  per  the  extant  provisions  of  the  scheme guidelines.
