Every month in India, one million people come onto the jobs market. But Indian employers complain that, despite this enormous pool of labour, they can't find the people they need, with the right skills, to help their businesses grow. It's such a pressing problem that earlier this year Prime Minister Narendra Modi launched an initiative called "Skills India" which aims to make hundreds of millions of Indians more employable. Can such a top-down, government-backed scheme work? And what are educational institutions and businesses themselves doing to help solve this problem? Are too many young Indian people pursuing prestigious professional qualifications when what the country really needs are millions more well-trained people with practical, hands on skills? To find out, in this week's edition of "Talking Business", Yogita Limaye is at Narsee Monjee Institute of Management Studies, a college in Mumbai, hearing from students, local workers and a distinguished panel including: Vandan Shah, managing director of Sipra Engineers; Purvi Seth, chief executive of human resources consultancy, Shilputsi; and Ninad Karpe, chief executive of information technology training institute, Aptech.
