Yeah, the manpower is a shortage in INDIA not in Indian people because they were going to other countries to do work after completing their studies. Because they give chance to prove their talent. Our companies provide uncomfortable features so they are work in abroad.

Hello Everyone.
We live in a country of 1.2 billion population and still we have shortage of trained, skilled and practical people. What a shame for us. But think who is bringing such circumstances. Of course our sure guess will go to our Government responsible for this education system. Yep they are but what about us. I think we are more responsible for such result more than our concerned authority. Suppose today you get placement offer from two companies during your study at college in final year. Lets say one is from India and other from US. Where will we choose to go? Almost 95% of people will choose to go abroad unless they have some their personal issues. Reason being is that they provide us far better environment, a comfortable life and salary that most of us shake hands with them. What benefit did our nation get from you then?
You will awkward to know that HRD ministry spends about 400 crores out of which only 50 crores is taken from students as fees every year in IITs. And Sarcasm is that it is spent for serving to nations other than India.
It is also true that our education system is not that much updated as per the current scenario. We Indians are rich in theoretical part but we can't even bulb a light by connecting wires together such is our practical skill today. The reason behind this all is our corrupt politicians who are taking no interest in bringing change to it is not a topic that will bring ransum to them.
So what we are required is to discuss these issues with our concerned authority right from the grass root label, i.e. University label which can further increase the attention of our national authority. And at the same time Each of Everyone of us should take oath that we are going to contribute something to this nation No matter where we go or from what field be belong.

Hi.
I too have a question that Indian people are lack in their practical knowledge?
NO, the indians are not lacking in their knowledge, they have immense knowledge but the way of educating the people is in a wrong way, many foreign countries are coming to India to recruit a talented Indian people to their companies, this shows that indians were skilled but the government of India is not utilising in a proper manner, if the Indian government launches schools and colleges in every nook and corner of the country then all the peoples in inaccessible areas also educated, and in this we can overcome our shortage of skilled manpower in india, our education system should be changed, our education system should be in a practical oriented, during their schooldays itself they should have been teached how to implement their technical skills in their practical life.
I finally finish my speech by saying that.
"INDIANS ARE THE MOST SKILLED PERSONS BUT OUR GOVERNMENT DOES NOT CREATING A GOOD WAY OF EDUCATION SYSTEM HOW TO UTILISING THAT SKILLS".

There is a shortage of skilled manpower mainly because of our education system.
* The syllabus is usually outdated and has no connect with what is being applied in the industry.
* The teachers focus on concepts. The students don't understand them and hence mug up the answers before the exams with the sole intention of passing the exam.
* Application of the concept is not taught and when a student asks a doubt from outside the prescribed text book, more often than not he is told "This is out of syllabus and will not come for the exam". This is the problem.

We overcome from skilled manpower shortage by opening of some good institute which will give not only theoretical as well as practical knowledge which is required for getting a job. Govt should give permission to open private institute only and only if they are able to fulfill such criteria otherwise not give permission. This is the only way to improve education system strict rule should be made for open any institute to overcome skilled manpower shortage. Why govt. Give permission to open such a huge amount of engineering colleges when there is no need such a huge quantity of engineers. Definitely these colleges are not up to the mark and lead to increase unemployment. Also, enhancement of practical aspect in curriculum is necessary to get skilled manpower.

Hello everyone.
I think the main problem is reservation. The person who doesn't have more knowledge is easily eligible for various jobs, studies or other courses and the person who actually deserves the seat is not eligible.
So, they move to different countries and raise their economy. Skilled people are cut off and the undeserving people do nothing and thats why we still have a tagline of our "A developing country".

Hi I am Maduri,
I want to state my opinion regarding this topic. I do not agree with it first that we have shortage in skill power. We too have skilled people who work for many companies. But they lack is proper guidance. The government is responsible for this. Due to poverty only mainly facilities are not available to the people who are talented. And also reservation system is causing the talented people to suffer a lot.

There are following reasons why India has the less skilled manpower.
1. We are still using an education system which was developed by British government intend to make clerks.
2. Schools and institutions have become money making building.
3. Lack of good government.
4. Government schemes should be such that every child can get the best education at minimum cost, every person can get electricity minimum cost, good hospitals. This is the only way of development. By giving free stuff and reservation we are not helping them we just make them lazy. The World knows that Indians are intelligent but lazy. These are just a temporary arrangement it doesn't change anything.
Today government has taken so many initiatives and started good schemes like skill development, Awaas Yojna, Jandhan Yojna, etc it would be the great impact in future for India.

"INDIA IS A COUNTRY WHICH HAVE PROBLEMS FROM ANIMAL CART TO JET PLANE ".
In INDIA child yet reading RAMAYANA in education and a Japanese children learning about how to reach on the MOON. We don't make things outdated, we use them continuous, so we can't make a level in anything. There is no PRACTICAL way to handle all problems in one method. First of all we should wash out our backwardness and think about the future consciously.
I feel that the reasons behind the SHORTAGE OF SKILLED MANPOWER in India are poor government policies. In INDIA our leaders make their policies according to past. There is no future planning. We feel happy to say we serve MNC in INDIA and abroad. But no one think about the requirement of skilled manpower according to our population. We doesn't have anything in surplus. The other nations state population lives in one medium city of INDIA. They have all facilities on per thousand then we have on per lakh. Our leaders who makes the development policies are far away from GRASS ROOT. There is no matter if we feel happy about some counted groups like AMBANI, TATA either we feel pleasure to say Originally INDIAN based for the man serve in abroad.
Overall I want to say there should be a practical development program from grass root to high level technical, scientific and research education. So that we can make a huge team of SKILLED MANPOWER.

It is frank that the India contain a huge of Manpower. But India is unable to use it.
Now a days most of employes anxious to say ' I am working in US ', ' I am in LONDON '. Just think once where he is from. He is from India itself. So please use our manpower for our country to improve.
