&lt;em&gt;Skill development ministry, led by Rajiv Pratap Rudy, has refused to spell out a new number that the government and its ministries will chase&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
New Delhi: &lt;/em&gt;The government has abandoned its goal of training 500 million people in new skills by 2022, in a clear shift in strategy.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Skill development ministry officials, at a press conference in New Delhi on Tuesday, also refused to spell out a new number that the Union government and its 22 departments and ministries will chase.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;ldquo;We don&amp;rsquo;t want to chase any number. Whether it is 150 million by the National Skill Development Corporation (NSDC) and 350 million by ministries&amp;mdash;we are delinking it, not attaching any number,&amp;rdquo; said Rajesh Aggarwal, director-general of training and a joint secretary in the skills ministry.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Skill development minister Rajiv Pratap Rudy agreed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;ldquo;It will be demand driven than supply driven,&amp;rdquo; he said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Though the ministry did not give a reason for shifting focus and delinking numbers from the skills mission, over the years, skill training targets have been missed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Between 2011 and 2015, the Union government missed the skill training target in three out of four years, barring 2013-14.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In 2014-15, the first year of the National Democratic Alliance government, all the departments, including NSDC, trained around 7.5 million people against a target of 10.5 million, as per official data.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In the next two years&amp;mdash;2015-16 and 2016-17&amp;mdash;they trained 11.7 million people.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The 500 million number formed the premise on which the Union government set up different bodies such as NSDC, National Skill Development Agency, Skill Development Fund, and made a concerted move to make the skill development sector for-profit in India as against the not-for profit nature of the education sector.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Besides, NSDC was given a corpus to hand out soft loans to training providers to achieve certain training targets.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Some of NSDC&amp;rsquo;s initial loans have turned non-performing assets, Mint reported on 26 May.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;em&gt;Skill development ministry, led by Rajiv Pratap Rudy, has refused to spell out a new number that the government and its ministries will chase&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
New Delhi: &lt;/em&gt;The government has abandoned its goal of training 500 million people in new skills by 2022, in a clear shift in strategy.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Skill development ministry officials, at a press conference in New Delhi on Tuesday, also refused to spell out a new number that the Union government and its 22 departments and ministries will chase.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;ldquo;We don&amp;rsquo;t want to chase any number. Whether it is 150 million by the National Skill Development Corporation (NSDC) and 350 million by ministries&amp;mdash;we are delinking it, not attaching any number,&amp;rdquo; said Rajesh Aggarwal, director-general of training and a joint secretary in the skills ministry.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Skill development minister Rajiv Pratap Rudy agreed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;ldquo;It will be demand driven than supply driven,&amp;rdquo; he said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Though the ministry did not give a reason for shifting focus and delinking numbers from the skills mission, over the years, skill training targets have been missed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Between 2011 and 2015, the Union government missed the skill training target in three out of four years, barring 2013-14.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In 2014-15, the first year of the National Democratic Alliance government, all the departments, including NSDC, trained around 7.5 million people against a target of 10.5 million, as per official data.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In the next two years&amp;mdash;2015-16 and 2016-17&amp;mdash;they trained 11.7 million people.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The 500 million number formed the premise on which the Union government set up different bodies such as NSDC, National Skill Development Agency, Skill Development Fund, and made a concerted move to make the skill development sector for-profit in India as against the not-for profit nature of the education sector.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Besides, NSDC was given a corpus to hand out soft loans to training providers to achieve certain training targets.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Some of NSDC&amp;rsquo;s initial loans have turned non-performing assets, Mint reported on 26 May.&lt;br /&gt;

The 500 million number formed the premise on which the Union government set up different bodies such as NSDC, National Skill Development Agency, Skill Development Fund, and made a concerted move to make the skill development sector for-profit in India as against the not-for profit nature of the education sector.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Besides, NSDC was given a corpus to hand out soft loans to training providers to achieve certain training targets.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Some of NSDC&amp;rsquo;s initial loans have turned non-performing assets, Mint reported on 26 May.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;em&gt;Skill development ministry, led by Rajiv Pratap Rudy, has refused to spell out a new number that the government and its ministries will chase&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
New Delhi: &lt;/em&gt;The government has abandoned its goal of training 500 million people in new skills by 2022, in a clear shift in strategy.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Skill development ministry officials, at a press conference in New Delhi on Tuesday, also refused to spell out a new number that the Union government and its 22 departments and ministries will chase.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;ldquo;We don&amp;rsquo;t want to chase any number. Whether it is 150 million by the National Skill Development Corporation (NSDC) and 350 million by ministries&amp;mdash;we are delinking it, not attaching any number,&amp;rdquo; said Rajesh Aggarwal, director-general of training and a joint secretary in the skills ministry.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Skill development minister Rajiv Pratap Rudy agreed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;ldquo;It will be demand driven than supply driven,&amp;rdquo; he said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Though the ministry did not give a reason for shifting focus and delinking numbers from the skills mission, over the years, skill training targets have been missed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Between 2011 and 2015, the Union government missed the skill training target in three out of four years, barring 2013-14.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In 2014-15, the first year of the National Democratic Alliance government, all the departments, including NSDC, trained around 7.5 million people against a target of 10.5 million, as per official data.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In the next two years&amp;mdash;2015-16 and 2016-17&amp;mdash;they trained 11.7 million people.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The 500 million number formed the premise on which the Union government set up different bodies such as NSDC, National Skill Development Agency, Skill Development Fund, and made a concerted move to make the skill development sector for-profit in India as against the not-for profit nature of the education sector.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Besides, NSDC was given a corpus to hand out soft loans to training providers to achieve certain training targets.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Some of NSDC&amp;rsquo;s initial loans have turned non-performing assets, Mint reported on 26 May.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;em&gt;Skill development ministry, led by Rajiv Pratap Rudy, has refused to spell out a new number that the government and its ministries will chase&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
New Delhi: &lt;/em&gt;The government has abandoned its goal of training 500 million people in new skills by 2022, in a clear shift in strategy.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Skill development ministry officials, at a press conference in New Delhi on Tuesday, also refused to spell out a new number that the Union government and its 22 departments and ministries will chase.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;ldquo;We don&amp;rsquo;t want to chase any number. Whether it is 150 million by the National Skill Development Corporation (NSDC) and 350 million by ministries&amp;mdash;we are delinking it, not attaching any number,&amp;rdquo; said Rajesh Aggarwal, director-general of training and a joint secretary in the skills ministry.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Skill development minister Rajiv Pratap Rudy agreed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;ldquo;It will be demand driven than supply driven,&amp;rdquo; he said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Though the ministry did not give a reason for shifting focus and delinking numbers from the skills mission, over the years, skill training targets have been missed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Between 2011 and 2015, the Union government missed the skill training target in three out of four years, barring 2013-14.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In 2014-15, the first year of the National Democratic Alliance government, all the departments, including NSDC, trained around 7.5 million people against a target of 10.5 million, as per official data.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In the next two years&amp;mdash;2015-16 and 2016-17&amp;mdash;they trained 11.7 million people.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The 500 million number formed the premise on which the Union government set up different bodies such as NSDC, National Skill Development Agency, Skill Development Fund, and made a concerted move to make the skill development sector for-profit in India as against the not-for profit nature of the education sector.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Besides, NSDC was given a corpus to hand out soft loans to training providers to achieve certain training targets.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Some of NSDC&amp;rsquo;s initial loans have turned non-performing assets, Mint reported on 26 May.&lt;br /&gt;

<em>Skill development ministry, led by Rajiv Pratap Rudy, has refused to spell out a new number that the government and its ministries will chase<br />
<br />
New Delhi: </em>The government has abandoned its goal of training 500 million people in new skills by 2022, in a clear shift in strategy.<br />
<br />
Skill development ministry officials, at a press conference in New Delhi on Tuesday, also refused to spell out a new number that the Union government and its 22 departments and ministries will chase.<br />
<br />
&ldquo;We don&rsquo;t want to chase any number. Whether it is 150 million by the National Skill Development Corporation (NSDC) and 350 million by ministries&mdash;we are delinking it, not attaching any number,&rdquo; said Rajesh Aggarwal, director-general of training and a joint secretary in the skills ministry.<br />
<br />
Skill development minister Rajiv Pratap Rudy agreed.<br />
<br />
&ldquo;It will be demand driven than supply driven,&rdquo; he said.<br />
<br />
Though the ministry did not give a reason for shifting focus and delinking numbers from the skills mission, over the years, skill training targets have been missed.<br />
<br />
Between 2011 and 2015, the Union government missed the skill training target in three out of four years, barring 2013-14.<br />
<br />
In 2014-15, the first year of the National Democratic Alliance government, all the departments, including NSDC, trained around 7.5 million people against a target of 10.5 million, as per official data.<br />
<br />
In the next two years&mdash;2015-16 and 2016-17&mdash;they trained 11.7 million people.<br />
<br />
The 500 million number formed the premise on which the Union government set up different bodies such as NSDC, National Skill Development Agency, Skill Development Fund, and made a concerted move to make the skill development sector for-profit in India as against the not-for profit nature of the education sector.<br />
<br />
Besides, NSDC was given a corpus to hand out soft loans to training providers to achieve certain training targets.<br />
<br />
Some of NSDC&rsquo;s initial loans have turned non-performing assets, Mint reported on 26 May.<br />
