As former President Pranab Mukherjee once said, “We often boast about India’s demographic dividend. But the question that arises is what do we do with this if we cannot skill them, if we cannot educate them and cannot enhance their employability.” As such, skill training has come to occupy a paramount position in the Indian industry and via franchisees the biggest of the brands are taking their businesses to new heights.
