Introduction

Samarth Bharat

The vision of BDSN is to make the socially and economically weaker section of the society, self-sufficient and to enable them live with pride. To fulfil this vision, BDSN has planned to provide Skill Development Training to the unemployed youth (the severity of which has further intensified during the current pandemic of COVID-19) to help them break away from poverty, by leveraging the training/hand holding to work their way up the social and economic ladder with dignity and pride.

The Nyas is conducting the trainings under the banner – Samarth Bharat (https://samarthbharat.net/). BDSN will provide pathways for re-skilling and up-skilling youth in the pre-identified sectors. The idea is to either enable them to transit into formal sector employment post training through the developed network of quality instructors or to help the enthusiastic and capable candidates to begin an entrepreneurial journey in their field of training. We are primarily focusing on hand skill based works such as: Electrician; AC, Washing Machine Technician; Beautician, Hair Stylist; Smartphones Repair Technician, CCTV technician etc.

Vision and Mission

Our aim is to reach out to weaker and unprivileged persons of the society and to propagate aspirational values among youth.
In our mission, we will rapidly expand skill development efforts in India by creating an end-to-end, outcome-focused implementation framework, which aligns the demands of the employers for a well-trained, skilled workforce with the aspirations of Indian citizens for sustainable livelihoods. Our website will create an end-to-end implementation framework for skill development, which provides opportunities for life-long learning and opportunities for quality long and short-term skill training that meets the aspirations of trainees. Outcome focused training will align employer/industry demand and workforce productivity with trainees for sustainable livelihoods. We will help the workers in organized and un-organized sectors to gain formal sector employment.

And, build capacity for skill development in organized and un-organized sectors, and provide pathways for re-skilling and up-skilling workers in these identified sectors, to enable them to transit into formal sector employment through a developed network of quality instructors. In turn, we will establish this ecosystem through high-quality teacher training institutions and leveraging existing public infrastructure and industry facilities.

Carrier Development Center (CDC)

At an event titled “Lead The Future”, Delhi University and Samarth Bharat launched Career Development Centre (CDC) at Convention Hall of DU on Tuesday.

The event saw a large turn-up of prospective entrepreneurs dreaming of starting their own startups. They listened with rapt attention to the success stories of entrepreneurs, some young and others with plenty of experience. All of them gave valuable lessons on how to climb the ladder of success. An MoU signing ceremony was attended by Principals of various colleges.

Describing the event as an important one, Prof Yogesh Singh, Delhi University Vice-Chancellor said, Career Development Centre was started by Samarth Bharat, a project of Bhaorao Deoras Sevas Nyas, which has created a start-up support ecosystem that will introduce young minds to skill development.

“This is the centenary year of Delhi University and we are celebrating 70 years of our Independence. On behalf of Delhi University, I welcome you all. Your presence influences young minds,” said the DU Vice-Chancellor.

Recalling a meeting with the Vice-Chancellor of Yale University in 2011, Prof Yogesh Singh said, “I was invited by the Vice Chancellor. He was worried about the future of young entrepreneurs in the US as the manufacturing units had shifted elsewhere. I thought if America was having a problem from becoming a world leader then we, too, need to give equal importance to manufacturers. We need to imbibe originality, creativity and imagination.”

He stressed the importance of skill development and having the right mindset to bring about a change.

Sharing his words of wisdom, Bharat Bhushan Arora, Chief Visionary and Patron of Samarth Bharat and MD of Bharat Prakashan, explained how Samarth Bharat came into being.

While working for the public when the country was hit by COVID-19 virus, Shri Arora realised that something concrete needs to be done on a fast track mode to mitigate the suffering of such a large number of people. “During the pandemic, we ran kitchens for two months to feed the public. It was a difficult phase yet we succeeded in distributing food to 1 crore people and gave rations to 2 lakhs families. However, I asked myself how long we can keep distributing food? We need to do something more as a lot of people had become jobless. Many sectors, including hospitality, were badly affected.”

Pointing out that many people, who lost their livelihood, are now earning good money, Shri Arora said, “We laid emphasis on skill development. Thanks to skill development, Kiran, a girl who lost her father, is now earning Rs 20,000. These children are before my eyes. Now, these children are earning from Rs 15,000 to Rs 50,000.”

Revealing that he was an alumnus of Delhi University, Sanjeev Bhikhchandani of Naukri.com said he began working after graduating in 1984. “Looking back, I can say that it has been 39 years of evolution. During my time, there was neither the IT sector nor the Internet. Telecompany or mobile apps were non-existent. Fortunately, we have now witnessed tremendous growth.”

Shri Bhikhchandani broke the myth that an entrepreneur needs to have a lot of money before embarking on any project. His advice to the young audience was to dream big but start small.
