The pilot project, which began on December 1, 2022, has now successfully concluded.

A 10-day training was conducted in Agra, Firozabad, Uttar Pradesh through a Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) approach. 

The training focused on enhancing the skills, understanding of new technology, and repair techniques of 300 two and three-wheeler mechanics in the EV industry.

Emphasising the potential of India’s youth, Arindam Lahiri, CEO, ASDC, said, “As the world's largest motorcycle market, India faces a significant shortage of skilled manpower in the motorcycle industry. By providing training opportunities, the country can bridge this skills gap and meet the industry's demands.”

“Upon completion of the training, participants were awarded an NSQF certificate, wage-based incentives, a tool kit, and one year of accident insurance coverage. These certifications, tool kits, and incentives provide participants with opportunities to secure employment in the industry or pursue entrepreneurship with the help of bank loans,” he added.  (KNN Bureau)
