Global Scenario – Advantage India • With the emergence of technologies and innovations in different parts of the world, it has become imperative for the governments to prioritize skill development to compete globally.

• By the year 2020, when most of the developed countries are likely to face a severe shortage of working age population; India will have a surplus of active population (15-45 years) of about 47 million people.

• In this scenario, if India channelizes its youth and improves on skill training it has a potential to increase its GDP upto 3% by 2035.
