Assam Chief Minister Sarbananda Sonowal today batted for investment and skill summits in all districts of the state to train the youth and encourage entrepreneurs.
At a review meeting here, Sonowal said that District Industrial Centres (DICs) should be entrusted with the responsibility to organise the events in partnership with private industrial players, to meet the government's target of skilling three lakh youths of Assam.
A total of 400 youths will be skilled as part of an MoU signed by the Assam government with the Singapore government, and 30 instructors from the state would visit the foreign country for training in this regard.
