The Department of Labour Welfare and Skill Development has planned to increase the number of student admission in the 90 government industrial training institutes (ITIs) across Tamil Nadu to 50,000.
Speaking to reporters at Radhapuram on Thursday after inspecting the Government ITI there, Minister for Labour Welfare and Skill Development S.V. Ganesan said student strength in government ITIs, which stood at 40,000, had fallen to 25,000 in the past 10 years as no specialised courses based on the present industrial needs were introduced. Besides introducing new courses based on demand, new ITIs would be started in places where they were needed. The buildings and the training equipment at the ITIs were being inspected and remedial measures taken.
While old buildings at the ITIs would be renovated or built afresh, educational equipment would be installed at these educational institutions based on the new courses to be introduced.
