Through this initiative, NSDC and Redington Foundation aim to train around 600 candidates\u2014mainly underprivileged youth and women\u2014from Baraut and Chhaprauli blocks in the Baghpat district. The Baraut centre will serve as the training hub, supported by a spoke centre in Chhaprauli to widen local access.

Addressing the gathering, Shri Ashwini Vaishnaw highlighted the significance of building a workforce aligned with emerging industry demands. He said, \u201cThis initiative in Baraut strengthens the government\u2019s mission of building a technologically empowered workforce that can support India\u2019s expanding digital and electronics ecosystem. When quality skilling reaches rural districts, it unlocks aspirations, expands local opportunities, and accelerates social transformation. With more learners now adopting AI-enabled tools and training; the local workforce is becoming future-ready for emerging and relevant job roles.\u201d<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

He said, \u201cToday\u2019s inauguration of the Skill India Centre in Baraut reflects the government\u2019s commitment to taking opportunities to the doorstep of every youth, especially in rural and underserved regions. The Centre would become a gateway of new possibilities for young people in the region. Skilling is not just about employment\u2014it is about dignity, mobility, and confidence. With centers like this, we are creating pathways for local talent to thrive in emerging sectors and contribute meaningfully to India\u2019s growth story.\u201d<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n
