Addressing the gathering, Pradhan underscored the importance of robust policies, market access, and skilled manpower in achieving this monumental goal.

Pradhan said, "India is rapidly preparing to become the manufacturing hub of the world and Gujarat is the leading state in this. To become a manufacturing hub, good policy, good market access and quality manpower are needed; this is not possible without skill development".

He added, "I congratulate the Gujarat government for opening a state-sponsored skill university for the first time in Gujarat. Skilled workers will boost the economy and increase profitability."

He stressed the need for comprehensive skill development initiatives to meet the evolving demands of the manufacturing sector and commended Gujarat's commitment to nurturing a skilled workforce.

The announcement of a state-sponsored skill university in Gujarat reflects a strategic move to align education and training with the evolving needs of the industry.

Such initiatives are anticipated to play a crucial role in empowering individuals with the necessary skills to contribute meaningfully to the manufacturing sector.
