The Skill India Mission aims to address the lack of employable skills among India's youth, with a target of training 500 million people by 2022 through initiatives like the Pradhan Mantri Kaushal Vikas Yojana (PMKVY). The program focuses on vocational education and includes soft skills training, targeting first-time job seekers and school dropouts, implemented by the National Skill Development Corporation (NSDC). Additionally, the mission seeks to align skill training with industry standards and engage private sector participation to meet the growing skill-based job market.
