This document discusses the need for skill development among construction workers in India. It notes that while the construction industry is growing at 16% annually, 79% of the estimated 310 lakh construction workers are unskilled. This leads to problems like substandard work and wastage. To address this, the document calls for increasing the number of skilled construction workers through programs at ITIs and new certificate courses in skills like masonry, carpentry, and operating heavy machinery. Public-private partnerships could help open more training centers using existing infrastructure. The goal is to skill 140 lakh additional construction workers by 2022 to meet industry needs and improve productivity.
