The country is well endowed with many metallic and non-metallic mineral resources.  India is a leading player in respect of many non fuel minerals including, iron ore, bauxite, dolomite, lime stone and mica.  Mining sector (non-fuel) currently accounts for approx 0.5% of GDP.  For accelerated economic growth on sustainable basis, this sector has to grow at a much faster pace to secure   a higher percentage in the GDP.
 
Scientific, sustainable and transparent mining practices require well trained manpower.  Skill development not only enhances productivity and safety at work place, but more importantly, it prepares the manpower to adapt to the new state of art technologies. Currently this sector employs around 0.2 Million workforce which is estimated to grow to 0.3 Million in next 10 years.

Respected Sir, Please guide the government of Gujarat for Mission Manglam Yojana. In Gujarat, Gujarat Livelihood Promotion Company Ltd. not renewed contract of GLPC staff and do the new recruitment. Well trained, qualified staff are there, so why this step taken by GLPC?

I think OJT is more important than theoretical knowledge, but its important to keep combination of both, it will help in understanding the working environment of mines.

General impression in mines area is that the field is a lootmar area.Strong instruction/mobilization to the mine's owner or govt.undertaking be given to create a good atmosphere that these are the national property & all from bottom to top work with dignity. Workforce must be skilled & they may be trained by sub-oriented/apprenticeship & on-the-ground training. Proper video recording to be maintained & that to be sent to the authorities of mines safety,planning deptt, MSME,concerned ministry&PMO
