National Skill Development Initiative - Preamble
• Skills and knowledge are the driving forces of economic growth and
social development for any country. Countries with higher and better
levels of skills adjust more effectively to the challenges and
opportunities of world of work.
• As the proportion of working age group of 15-59 years will be increasing
steadily, India has the advantage of ‘demographic dividend’.
• Harnessing the demographic dividend through appropriate skill
development efforts would provide an opportunity to achieve inclusion
and productivity within the country and also make this resource pool
‘globally deployable’ in reduction of global skill shortages.

Building India 2022- A Human Resource Super
Power
• India has lagged behind for several reasons in the race for
economic development. However, the picture is not that
dark for the future. I strongly believe, if we are able to
exploit and develop the tremendous human resource of our
nation, it is inevitable, as never before ever witnessed, to
leap forward in the race for social and economic
development.

Building India 2022- A Human Resource Super
Power
• What we need is skills development. However, it is
extremely essential to equip our youth with right skills which
make them productive citizens of our society. Because,
empowerment through the acquisition of knowledge is the
only way in which those who have lagged behind in the race
for social and economic development can catch up with the
rest of the World and go beyond it.
