A hundred youth were enrolled in a new youth employability skill (YES) project at Imphal, Manipur, inaugurated by Union Minister of State for Youth Affairs and Sports on Monday.
Under the project, skill-related training will be given to the youth in the North-Eastern region to boost their chances of finding jobs or starting their own enterprises. About 8,000 youths in 59 districts would be covered under this scheme in eight North-Eastern States.
The National Skill Development Corporation, which has been co-promoted by the Finance Ministry to catalyse private sector involvement in skill development, will partner the Ministry of Youth Affairs & Sports for the venture.
