The scheme operated by Gujarat Skill Development Mission (GSDM) of the labour and employment department of the Gujarat government is to implement the mandate of the National Skill Development Mission.
The department has recently said that it has allowed small business and units having a turnover of Rs 50 lakh to participate in the SANKALP (Skills Acquisition and Knowledge awareness for livelihood promotion) scheme, an official release stated here.
