The country is well endowed with many metallic and non-metallic mineral resources.  India is a leading player in respect of many non fuel minerals including, iron ore, bauxite, dolomite, lime stone and mica.  Mining sector (non-fuel) currently accounts for approx 0.5% of GDP.  For accelerated economic growth on sustainable basis, this sector has to grow at a much faster pace to secure   a higher percentage in the GDP.
 
Scientific, sustainable and transparent mining practices require well trained manpower.  Skill development not only enhances productivity and safety at work place, but more importantly, it prepares the manpower to adapt to the new state of art technologies. Currently this sector employs around 0.2 Million workforce which is estimated to grow to 0.3 Million in next 10 years.

the concept can only be developed in classrooms, but the practical function knowledge can only be obtained through proper training in the field.

Witnessed the sad state of some of the govt schools in coimbatore. 8th std kids are unable to do basic maths like addition, subtraction. Forget quality, here they do not have basic education. How do we solve this problem? What measures is the government taking to solve this?

For job creation, to save india from crony capital, we should give an old slogan to indians, WORK IS WORSHIP, while trading in goods and giving service, if we print this slogan on every goods and while providing services, we remember principle of WORK is WORSHIP, then most of people will understand that trades and services could be taken place not only to earn profit but also for rotating the money. Some times A slogan can change mentality of many people and it works lot as a match box works.
