Out of the total 7,94,911 enrolled candidates enrolled for the Pradhan Mantri Kaushal Vikas Yojana (PMKVY) training programme, Union Territories (UT) reported the lowest enrolments – only 7.64 per cent.
National Skill Development Corporation organised the PMKVY training programme to give industry-relevant skill training to the candidates which can further help them for employability. Careers360 divided all states of India into six zones for a better analysis and comparison- North, South, East, West, Central and UTs. This article gives a deep analysis of all the UTs of the country.
