About

• Samarth is a demand-driven and placement-oriented umbrella skilling program of the Ministry of Textiles. 
• The scheme aims to encourage and support the industry in creating jobs in the organized textile and related sectors, covering the entire value chain of textiles, excluding Spinning and Weaving. 
• In addition to entry-level skilling, the scheme also provides upskilling/reskilling programs to improve the productivity of existing workers in Apparel & Garmenting segments. 
• The scheme is implemented through Implementing Partners (IPs) comprising Textile Industry/Industry Associations, Central/State government agencies, and Sectoral Organizations of the Ministry of Textiles like DC/Handloom, DC/Handicrafts, Central Wool Development Board, and Central Silk Board.
