E-bike battery swap service centres in every street. This can be a great source of both self employment and clean energy/env. Today everybody is buying automatic scooters for commute in cities because of traffic problems.this is an opportunity to sell more electric scooters. however battery charging is a problem. if a removable battery in these scooters with a standard form and fit can be standardised across the industry, thousands of local jobs can be created for battery service centres.

Post Office: Generally post offices close by 6.30 PM, working professionals can volunteer & train interested people as a service to nation. 30 minutes per day is not a big problem to educate a fellow citizen. Existing post office infrastructure can be used. #CareerCentre

Before giving training to youth, their interest in particular field is to be assessed. Because every body has got some innate interest in some skills. For example some body has mechanical mind that can not be seen in others. It would be more successful depending on their interest in a field they should be fit in and given training.

Innate skills already present in their genes through their heredity that is caste based, and they can be further trained on that basis. They will learn quickly and shine well in their field.
