These training centres have been strategically established at six different locations which includes Bagna, Galharbhata, Padyarna, Agral, Kandni and Trigam of Kishtwar district to provide vocational training and employment-oriented skill to the local youth and affected families. The initiative aligns with the governmentās vision of inclusive development and aims to empower the local population with sustainable livelihood opportunities, especially those directly impacted by infrastructure and development projects in the region.
