ANSWER
(a) Ministry of Skill Development and Entrepreneurship is implementing two flagship schemes known as Pradhan Mantri Kaushal Vikas Yojana (PMKVY) and Pradhan Mantri Kaushal Kendra (PMKK) on pan –India basis to cover the prospective youths. Under PMKK, Ministry is promoting establishment of model aspirational skill centres in every district for imparting skill training through PMKVY. As on 22.12.2017, 527 Pradhan Mantri Kaushal Kendras (PMKKs) have been allocated across 27 states covering 484 Districts and 406 Parliamentary Constituencies (PCs). Out of which, 328 PMKKs have been established. Out of the 36 Districts in Maharashtra, PMKKs have been allocated in 28 Districts. State-wise list of allocated PMKKs is given at Annexure I.
(b) to (e) As on December 27, 2017, 56 PMKKs including the PMKKs in districts of Ratnagiri and Shindhudurg of Maharashtra, have been de-allocated for various reasons namely; Training Providers (TPs) were unable to identify the suitable location as per PMKK Guidelines, TPs requested to withdraw due to the inadequate financial and operational bandwidth to implement the project, Non-adherence to the timeline of the project as per the PMKK Agreement etc. District/PC wise de-allocation of PMKKs, as on 27.12.2017, is given at Annexure-II.
De-allocation of PMKKs in some districts has not defeated the purpose of PMKVY as out of the total target allocation of 25 lakhs under PMKVY 2016-20, till date, a target of 5 lakh has been allocated to PMKKs for training under the scheme. Further, Proposal has been invited for these de-allocated / un-allocated PMKK centers from the market through Request for Proposal (RFP) dated 12th September 2017.
