NIPUN project: NAREDCO to partner NSDC in skilling construction workers
Live MintThe National Real Estate Development Council has enrolled over 15,000 construction workers under the government’s National Initiative for Promotion of Upskilling of Nirman workers project. Housing and Urban Affairs Minister Hardeep Singh Puri launched this project for skill training of construction workers called “NIPUN,” i.e., the National Initiative for Promoting Upskilling of Nirman workers, last year. “With an aim of the Ministry of Housing & Urban Affairs, to certify over 1.06 Lakhs construction workers across the nation over the year under NIPUN project, NAREDCO has already enrolled over 15,000 construction workers out of 32,000 workers as of 15 February, 2023. “Presently, there is no shortage of opportunities for qualified labor in the real estate industry, but a lack of skills is a major barrier to employability and paying decent wages for the workers,” said Rajan Bandelkar, National President, of NAREDCO.
