Lucknow, 19 Aug (HS): The Yogi government is continuously

taking new steps to connect the youth of the state not only with the national

but also with the global employment market. In this regard, an 'International

Employment Cell' has been formed in the Uttar Pradesh Skill Development

Mission. This cell will gather information about employment opportunities

available abroad, train youth as per the demand of foreign companies, and

connect them to international employment in a transparent manner.

Kapil Dev Agarwal, Minister of State (Independent Charge)

for Vocational Education, Skill Development, and Entrepreneurship, said that

the Yogi government's goal is to provide better employment opportunities to the

youth of the state according to their qualifications and skills. He said that

the youth of Uttar Pradesh are second to none in terms of talent and potential.

Through the International Employment Cell, an effective system is being

prepared to connect our trained youth with employment opportunities abroad. The

government's priority is that youth get respectable employment according to

their qualifications and bring glory to the state globally.

Mission Director Pulkit Khare said that this initiative is

important in the direction of achieving the goal of making the state a one

trillion dollar economy. Currently, under the Uttar Pradesh Skill Development

Mission, youth are being provided skill training for over 1,300 job roles in 35

major sectors. Now, special emphasis will be placed on connecting trained youth

with the global employment market.

The International Employment Cell will coordinate with

recruiting agents registered with the Ministry of External Affairs, Government

of India, the Directorate of Employment, Uttar Pradesh's 'Mission Rojgar', and

other related organizations. By obtaining the demand for human resources from

companies operating abroad, the availability of trained youth will be ensured

accordingly. Dr. M.K. Singh, Assistant Director, has been appointed as the

Chairman of the Cell, and Vijay Namdev, Assistant Manager, has been nominated

as the Nodal Officer.

The International Employment Cell will meet and coordinate

with the Mission Rojgar Cell every 15 days to obtain information about new

employment demands in various countries and sectors. Based on this, a database

of eligible youth will be prepared and provided to the concerned agencies.

The cell will also pre-assess potential future job

opportunities abroad. This information will be provided to the TPP cell so that

new training programs can be started as needed and youth can be prepared in

time according to employment demands. The cell will also study the demand for

skilled workers in various countries with the support of Invest UP. Along with

this, efforts will be made to connect youth who have received training from the

Uttar Pradesh Skill Development Mission but have not yet found employment with

overseas employment on a priority basis.
