This is Good...
ITIs (trade schools run by the Indian govt.) have, for a long while,
been in a rather bad state. With public-private partnerships, their condition
seems to be improving. Part of this is market driven-- a growing
manufacturing sector needs welders, electricians, mechanics etc. But
the govt deserves credit too, for getting out of the way.
The improvement in ITIs' amenities is itself a big
deal but making the syllabus more responsive to industry needs and introducing
placement support services is, I think, even more significant.
As the Indian manufacturing sector grows more, places like ITIs are going to be crucial in fulfilling the labor needs.
