## ANSWER

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

(SHRI RAJEEV CHANDRASEKHAR)

- (a) The Directorate General of Training (DGT) under the Ministry of Skill Development & Entrepreneurship (MSDE) is responsible for providing the broad Policy Framework for running the long-term skilling ecosystem in the country.  The financial and administrative management of the Industrial Training Institutes (ITIs) lies with the State Governments. Accordingly, the budgetary allocation and expenditure for setting up/improvement of ITIs is the domain of respective State Governments/UT Administration.  However,  DGT  under  MSDE,  has  allocated  funds  under  following schemes for establishment and improvement of ITI infrastructure across the country.
- i) Skills Strengthening for Industrial value Enhancement (STRIVE) programme  is  a  World  Bank  assisted  project  with  the  objective  of  improving  the relevance and efficiency of skills training provided through ITIs and apprenticeships. The  financial  agreement  was  signed  between  the  Government  of  India  and  the World Bank in December 2017 with a budget outlay of INR 2200 Crore (US $ 318 million), covering 500 ITIs, consisting of both Government and private ITIs, as well

as 100 Industry Clusters (ICs). The details of state wise allocation and fund released for upgradation of ITIs are at Annexure I .

- ii) Enhancing  Skill  Development  Infrastructure  in  North  Eastern  States: The scheme is for upgradation of 22 existing ITIs by establishment of 3 new trades in each ITI; supplementing deficient infrastructure in 28 ITIs by constructing new boundary wall, new hostel along with supplementing old and obsolete tools and equipment for 3 existing trades in each ITI; and establishment of 34 new ITIs. The details of state wise allocation and fund released are at Annexure I .
- iii) Skill  Development  in  48  Districts  Affected  by  LWE: The  scheme  inter-alia supports establishment of 48 ITI in 48 districts affected by Left Wing Extremism (LWE). The details of state wise allocation and fund released are at Annexure I .
- iv) Upgradation  of  existing  Government  ITIs  into  Model  ITIs: At  least  one existing  ITI  in  each  State  has  been  taken  up  for  upgradation  into  Model  ITI  for showcasing  best  practices,  efficient  and  high  quality  training  delivery  and  sustainable and effective industry relationship. The details of state wise allocation and fund released are at Annexure I .
- (b) STRIVE  is  Central  Sector  Scheme  and  therefore  there  is  no  state  share. However,  under  the  schemes  for  Enhancing  Skill  Development  Infrastructure  in  North Eastern States, Skill Development in 48 Districts Affected by  LWE and Upgradation of existing Government ITIs into Model ITIs expenditure is shared between the Central and State Government.
- (c) The funds are released to the State Governments without delay upon submission of  Utilization  Certificates  (UCs)  and  satisfactory  progress  reports  as  per  guidelines  of scheme.
- (d) The procurement of tools and equipment is done by respective States/UTs. No discrepancies/shortcomings  have  been  reported  by  States/UTs  in  procurement  of equipment/ machines in ITIs covered under the scheme.
