What happened
The Government of Uttar Pradesh is advancing the Prime Minister Skilling and Employability Transformation through Upgraded ITIs (PM-SETU) scheme. This initiative aims to develop the state's Government Industrial Training Institutes (ITIs) into industry-based skill development centers. The first phase includes ITI clusters in eight cities: Kanpur, Muzaffarnagar, Meerut, Lucknow, Gorakhpur, Varanasi, Prayagraj, and Agra. Industries are encouraged to partner actively by helping update curricula and training standards to meet market demands.
