Component I upgrades 1,000 government industrial training institutes through 200 hubs and 800 spokes. A normal cluster contains 1 hub and 4 spokes, so 200 such hub anchors can support the specified 800 spoke institutes.

Q2Consider the following statements about PM-SETU: 1. An industry partner holds 51% in the cluster's special purpose vehicle, while the government holds 49%. 2. The scheme aims to skill 20 lakh youth and train 50,000 trainers over 5 years. Which of the statements given above is/are correct?

A Bhubaneswar
B Kanpur
