million students who graduate from over 13,000 Industrial Training Institutes
every year. It will also help students in pursuing regular courses from other
schools and colleges.

Rudy admitted that recently there has been a decline in the quality of education being provided at various ITIs but he assured that in coming years new ITIs set up in the country will be at par with the quality of central schools such as Kendriya Vidyalayas and other training institutes providing quality education. He said,"23 lakh students used to pass out from ITIs but did not get the equivalent certificate of X or XII standard because no such provision was there earlier".
Senior Officials in the Ministry of Skill Development and Entrepreneurship, said that once the proposal is fromalised, the National Council for Vocational Training (NCVT) will have the proper authority to conduct examination and award certificates for class 10 and class 12 enrolled in ITIs.
