The country is well endowed with many metallic and non-metallic mineral resources. India is a leading player in respect of many non fuel minerals including, iron ore, bauxite, dolomite, lime stone and mica. Mining sector (non-fuel) currently accounts for approx 0.5% of GDP. For accelerated economic growth on sustainable basis, this sector has to grow at a much faster pace to secure a higher percentage in the GDP.

Scientific, sustainable and transparent mining practices require well trained manpower. Skill development not only enhances productivity and safety at work place, but more importantly, it prepares the manpower to adapt to the new state of art technologies. Currently this sector employs around 0.2 Million workforce which is estimated to grow to 0.3 Million in next 10 years.

Where is black money ? Now don't take U turn. Your decisions are unfortunate and it all favours to Gujrat. Are you prime minister of Gujrat or India ? Please clarify. You and your party is selfish also. as you giving treatment to Shivsena. Your gov. cannot survive more time without Shivsena. It is 400 years of history , many Afzalkhan came from Delhi, karnatak to capture Maharashtra and Mumbai , but they are not succeed. Now Afzalkhan came from Gujrat. Mr. Modi , you are disappoint to us.

At a time when more and more youth are opting for white collar jobs, it is first necessary that the the career prospects of the blue collared workers is made remunerative enough. They should be able to get enough so that they are in the same bracket as upper middle class.

Burden on school students must be reduced as in US and many other nations so that they can discover themselves.Today our country is producing book worms often physically unhealthy, they dont know their skills & many careers are not opted due to social pressure or less incomes or worse they don't know what they are good at because they spent their childhood in just studying for btech/CA.Career counselling & encouragement, less burden of studies(but quality) is the only way for a skilled India.

Here is a young girl, LAVANYA KRISHNAN, Studying in Bangalore, not yet 18 who has taken it upon herself to save children from sexual abuse. She has been going to schools, orphanages and spreading awareness of sexual abuse. She feels that if her efforts can save even one child from abuse, it will be an achievement for her. Girl Child Education needs to include the aspect of sexual abuse too. Please visit her facebook page to see what difference she is making. https://www.facebook.com/pages/Innoce

Sir, Skill development is required to meet need at different level. There is no dearth of skill. What is needed is motivation. For example when army and air force helped disaster victims in Uttarakhand, what mattered was motivation. Here what is needed is to find merit, place him at a point with responsibility, like people of India did while choosing the present PM. That person becomes the catalyst. When you dis regard merit people lose interest and then they start working for self gain.

Skill development by vocational training is more crucial than formal degrees so that more people get dignified jobs. Every job is important & contributes so a system of apprenticeships & selecting people based on what capabilities they demonstrate is more important. The apprenticeship system must be strengthened so youngsters get experience without organisations having to commit on jobs. Make organisations commit time for training, job creation will happen with growth.
