So what, if they are good at it, Shouldn’t we learn from them also?
Gyan bat Raha hai.. Jahan se mile samaint lo…
There are countless IT certifications do not require any education for participation in exam because they know only knowledgeable person dare to learn so why mr pm want graduates to…
The adv is to only slap his photo and nothing else.
Remember IT sector flourished with any govt help to date. Govt just want to take credit of like previous govt.
It’s a great initiative…
I wish it was started earlier and the reimbursement amount should be more…

I appreciate government skilled learning initiatives but some of the programs are only eligible for the graduates. The students who are pursuing bachelors in the respected field should also considered eligible or at least 5th semester students and beyond.

Discuss with existing IT companies like SYSTEM Limited etc. Their suggestions carry weight.
This is not well thought out, as usual. If you only recompensate people who are professionals working in the IT industry, and students studying IT related courses, it doesn’t make much difference because they are already in this field. It would be more sensible to open it for all people. Most of the people in the IT industry are secure. It is actually everybody else who are at risk of losing jobs especially due to AI developments. It would make much more sense to encourage those people to transition towards developing the skills needed to survive in this new digital world.
No doubt it’s a good initiative, as all initiatives are good initiatives. But nothing good has come out of the good initiatives in the past….I don’t doubt this to be any different either.
LET US BE AWARE OF THE REST IN PEACE.
