    Happy Students Speak

    Mrs. Athokpam Thoibi Devi

    I was very sad and I was earning only Rs. 3,000.00 to 4,000.00 per month as I had not any certificate of my job profile. One day I came to know about PMKVY training program. During the counseling I have selected to participate the PMKVY RPL and I have done all the classes regularly. After the completion of my course I have received a certificate and increase my wages. Now I am happy to support my family and also not working extra time. Thanks to PMKVY.
