Report Released on PM-DAKSH Program
The Ministry of Social Justice & Empowerment reported on the Pradhan Mantri Dakshata Aur Kushalta Sampann Hitgrahi (PM-DAKSH) scheme, which was launched in 2020-21 to provide skill training to marginalized groups in India. The program is implemented by three corporations under the Department of Social Justice & Empowerment, which fund training institutes that are part of the Pradhan Mantri Kaushal Vikas Yojana. These institutes must ensure that at least 70% of trained candidates secure employment, or they risk losing a portion of their funding. The initiative aims to promote self-employment and wage-employment, thus contributing to the socio-economic development of the targeted communities.
