 India’s excellence in different artistic and culinary skill sets is described in our ancient and contemporary literature and it will not be an exaggeration to say that it is still ingrained in the soil of the remotest part of the country.

Further, after globalization India has also developed its niche particularly in IT related skill sets like web designing, graphic design technology, IT software solutions for business, mobile robotics etc.

To make India the “Skill Capital” of the world, it is essentially required to showcase the country’s excellence in different skill sets across the globe.

To penetrate these competitions to the remotest part of the country and to encourage Indian youth to participate in these competitions and get selected to participate in World Skills and other International competitions, the India Skills competitions 2023-24 have been organized by Jammu and Kashmir Skill Development Mission.

India Skills Competition is the best way to recognize and celebrate the hardwork and dedication of our participants at the J&K UT level Competition.
