Which state government presented its CM FLIGHT Scheme and a plan for a Global Skill Center at the programme?
- A.Meghalaya
- B.Assam
- C.Manipur
- D.Tripura
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is Assam. The programme was held at Guwahati and the Government of Assam presented its CM FLIGHT Scheme along with its vision for a Global Skill Center, setting out the state's effort to connect its workforce with emerging opportunities. Assam also exchanged the Memorandum of Understanding with the Ministry of Skill Development and Entrepreneurship for a Skill India International Centre, and its minister Biswajit Daimary spoke about equipping young people of the state with industry-relevant skills for jobs at home and abroad. Options A, C and D are wrong because, although all three are states of the North-Eastern Region whose youth the programme discussed, none of them presented a scheme at this event; the agreements and the state presentation belonged to Assam alone.
