Hegde said the Centre was forced to de-affiliate around 400 ITIs due to their poor and deteriorating quality.
“It has come to my knowledge that ITI quality is substandard, we were forced to disaffiliate few ITIs since the quality is not good,” he said.
The Union minister was here to take stock of functioning of various ITIs and also took feedback from the people about the functioning of these institutes in the state besides other skill development institute in the region.
The Skill Development Ministry has begun monitoring the ITIs with a view to maintaining their quality standards and also introduced voluntary self grading by the institutes.
