On June 15, 2019, World Youth Skills Day was celebrated at L&T’s Hazira Manufacturing Complex (HZMC). At an event, attended by members of the senior management, staffers, and trainees, topics relating to youth skills training and how it was intrinsically tied to the nation’s growth agenda was discussed at great length. The program also saw L&T-ites reiterate their commitment to this cause of national importance. Held at the Central Training Centre Workshop, the program also witnessed the launch of ‘Kaushal Pakhwada’ - a 15-day initiative for raising awareness about the importance of skills development and training.
In an address, Mr. Atik M. Desai, CAO & VP, Hazira Central Services noted that the aim of World Youth Skills Day was to encourage the youth to celebrate the value of acquiring skills to achieve personal success and fulfilment. Reminding those gathered that since L&T Group Chairman Mr. A.M. Naik is currently spearheading National Skill Development Corporation (NSDC), a not-for-profit firm instituted by the government to bring about transformative change in the area of skill-building, L&T had a ‘personal stake’ in the said mission.
He also urged the trainees gathered on the occasion to dedicate themselves fully to developing their skill-sets and make every effort to succeed in their chosen trade.
The event also witnessed speeches by Mr. Rajesh Parekh and Rajeev Savant on the topic of skill development. Mr Kalpesh Gajjar administered a special pledge to all those present for committing themselves to the cause of skill development.
