Early Times Report
LUCKNOW, July 15: Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath inaugurated a two-day Skill Fair and Exhibition at Indira Gandhi Pratishthan in Lucknow on the occasion of World Youth Skills Day on Tuesday. The event showcased the talents of youth from all 75 districts of Uttar Pradesh who are undergoing training at various skill development centers across the state.
Addressing the gathering, CM Yogi extended his best wishes to the youth on World Youth Skills Day and emphasized the importance of equipping them with cutting-edge skills such as artificial intelligence (AI) and digital literacy. He noted, "Skilled youth are the backbone of a self-reliant India, and the double-engine government is committed to providing jobs and self-employment opportunities."
The Chief Minister highlighted that Uttar Pradesh, being the most populous state in the country with a working-age population comprising 56 to 60 percent of its 25 crore residents, holds immense potential. The state government, he said, is making continuous efforts to match youth talent with suitable employment opportunities. He lauded the participation of public representatives, industry leaders, and trainees who are shaping the future of a skilled Uttar Pradesh.
He added, "In the last eight years, Uttar Pradesh has revived many traditional enterprises and has taken decisive steps to transform scale into skill. As part of this digital empowerment mission, the state is distributing smartphones and tablets to 2 crore youth, with 50 lakh beneficiaries already reached. Additionally, in partnership with Tata Technologies, 150 government-run Industrial Training Institutes (ITIs) have been upgraded with modern technologies to ensure industry-relevant training."
He said, "Uttar Pradesh currently has around 400 government and 3,000 private ITIs, where skill development training is offered at minimal cost. Students enrolled in private ITIs also receive scholarships and various incentives." "Every young person deserves access to training and employment that reflects their talents and aspirations," the Chief Minister emphasized, reaffirming the government's core objective.
Speaking about the state's investment-driven growth, CM Yogi highlighted that over the past eight years, enhanced law and order and investor-friendly policies have resulted in the implementation of investment proposals worth more than Rs 15 lakh crore. These investments are creating lakhs of new jobs across sectors.
