The MoA was signed by Dr. Vivek Aggarwal, Director General, Skill Development & Industrial Training, Government of Haryana and Mr. Rahul Bharti, Executive Director, Corporate Affairs, Maruti Suzuki India Limited.
On this occasion, Mr. Rahul Bharti, Executive Director, Corporate Affairs, Maruti Suzuki India Limited, said, “ The Indian passenger vehicle industry is now world’s third largest and growing. It is our responsibility to prepare human capacity corresponding to manufacturing capacity to meet this growth. Skilling our youth with industry ready skills will help us realize the vision of an Atmanirbhar Bharat. We are glad to partner with the Haryana Government and share the common vision of training and skilling the youth so that they can contribute towards the growth of Haryana.”
Mr. Bharti added: “We have been operating Japan-India Institutes for Manufacturing (JIMs) since 2017. The key feature of the JIM is that the equipment on which the students are trained is almost similar to that in a modern production factory. In addition there is a focus on safety, quality, discipline, punctuality, Kaizen, and other Japanese shop floor practices along with the core curriculum prescribed by the National Council for Vocational Training(NCVT). That helps better employability.”
Located about 16 kms from the upcoming automobile hub Kharkhoda, JIM Kansala will offer extensive career opportunities to the students trained at the ITI.
The government of Haryana has provided the land and building for the JIM, Kansala. Maruti Suzuki will provide equipment, training modules, trained teachers, and will manage this institute for 15 years.
