Government of India and State Government, both are responsible for formulation and execution of policies related to Education. National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 recommends integration of skill education programmes into mainstream education in all education institutions in a phased manner. Focus areas for skill education are chosen based on skill gap analysis and mapping of local opportunities. The Government of India provides financial assistance for the implementation of the Centrally Sponsored Scheme of Samagra Shiksha, as per the Annual Work Plan & Budget (AWP&B) prepared by the respective State/UTs based on their requirement and as per the programmatic and financial norms of the scheme and availability of budgetary resources. Pre-vocational exposure for students of Classes VI to VIII is supported under the Innovation component of Samagra Shiksha. Exposure to skill education at this stage enables students to explore job-related skills across various sectors and supports them in making informed subject choices. A key 15.12.2025 495 intervention for skill exposure is the implementation of the 10-day bagless period for students of Classes VI to VIII, during which students intern with local experts such as artisans, gardeners and craft persons. Approximately 3.03 Cr. students have been exposed to the pre-vocational exposure and 10 bagless days initiatives up to the year 2024-25. State/UT-wise details of students exposed to both the above initiatives are given in the enclosed Statement -I. Under the Skill Education component of this scheme, National Skill Qualification Framework (NSQF) aligned skill courses are offered to the students from class 9th to 12th. At the Secondary level i.e., Class IX and X, skill courses are offered to the students as an additional subject. At Sr. Secondary level, i.e., Class XI and XII, skill courses are offered as a compulsory (elective) subject. All middle and secondary stage schools are eligible to introduce skill exposure to grade 6 to 8. All secondary stage schools are eligible to introduce skill education for grade 9 to 12 across the country. Currently, as per data available on UDISE+, there are 3,06,942 secondary stage schools in the country. Based on the proposal received from the State/UTs, approval has been granted to 31,477 schools for introducing skill courses and 20,724 schools have established skill labs through Samagra Shiksha. Additionally, 4,988 PM SHRI schools have also been approved for skill education out of which 3,798 schools have already been imparting skill education. State/UT-wise details are compiled based on the Quarterly Progress Report (QPR) received from the States/UTs and are given in the enclosed Statement -II. As far as CBSE is concerned, more than 30,000 schools are affiliated with 15.12.2025 496 CBSE and all of them are eligible to introduce skill education under NEP 2020. CBSE offers 22 Skill subjects for students of class IX & X and 43 Skill subjects for students of classes XI & XII. 1286 Kendriya Vidyalayas and 647 Jawahar Navodaya Vidyalaya schools are offering skill courses to the students of secondary stage. Financial allocations, releases and utilisation for vocationalisation under Samagra Shiksha are monitored through the PRABANDH (Project Appraisal, Budgeting, Achievements and Data Handling) system. State/UT-wise and year- wise details of funds allocated and utilised are given in the enclosed Statement -III. Regular interactions and review meetings are held with States/UTs to monitor implementation and address operational issues. To strengthen skill education, school boards are registering themselves with NCVET to become Awarding body and Assessing Authority. Further, the provision of Hub-and-Spoke model has also been introduced, wherein skill infrastructure available in designated hub schools is utilised by students from nearby spoke schools for skill training. Industrial Training Institutes (ITIs), Polytechnics and similar institutions are also being used as hubs to facilitate wider access to hands-on learning. Furthermore, to strengthen skill education, the Department has developed a Career Guide Book with 500 career cards across 21 domains, and also launched ‘My Career Advisor’ mobile application based on AI/ML for personalised career guidance. 15.12.2025 497 STATEMENT-I Students covered under pre-vocational exposure and Bagless Days S.

THE MINISTER OF STATE IN THE MINISTRY OF FINANCE (SHRI PANKAJ CHOUDHARY): (a): Group of Ministers (GoM) has submitted its recommendations to GST Council. As per recommendations of the GST Council in its 56th meeting held on 03rd September 2025, the GST Compensation cess on all goods except pan masala, gutkha, cigarettes, chewing tobacco products like zarda, unmanufactured tobacco and bidi, has been implemented with effect from 22nd September 2025.

The issue was placed before the GST Implementation Committee (GIC), which, in its meeting held on 27.03.2025, decided that the request of the States regarding deferring the recovery of IGST deficit may be considered and the consolidated recovery for FY 2023-24 & FY 2024-25 shall be carried out in April, 2025. Accordingly, the said recovery has been made in the month of April, 2025 in accordance with the approvals of the GST Council and GIC. CONTRIBUTION OF STATES IN TOURISM INDUSTRY 2401. SHRI A.
