employment initiative. It has been launched by the Ministry of Rural Development (MoRD) in 2014. It is part of the broader National Rural Livelihood Mission (NRLM) under the Aajeevika programme. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The scheme aims to skill poor rural youth between the ages of 15 and 35 (with special provisions up to 45 for women, persons with disabilities, PVTGs, and other marginalised groups) and provide them with gainful and sustainable employment in jobs offering wages at or above the minimum wage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The primary objective of DDU-GKY is to <strong>reduce poverty<\/strong> in rural households by providing skill training and placement opportunities that ensure upward mobility and financial stability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-who-are-the-beneficiaries-of-ddu-gky\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Who_are_the_Beneficiaries_of_DDU-GKY\"><\/span>Who are the Beneficiaries of DDU-GKY?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>DDU-GKY primarily targets rural poor youth who are eager to be skilled and placed in regular wage employment. The scheme also focuses on social inclusion by ensuring that special groups receive adequate support. These include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Women<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Persons with Disabilities (PwDs)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Particularly Vulnerable Tribal Groups (PVTGs)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Transgender individuals<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Other marginalised groups, such as rehabilitated bonded labourers, victims of trafficking, manual scavengers, and HIV-positive persons<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Beneficiaries are identified through the <strong>Participatory Identification of Poor (PIP)<\/strong> system. Until PIP data is fully implemented, youth from BPL households, MGNREGA worker households, RSBY cardholders, and members of SHGs under NRLM are eligible to participate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-16018d1d wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.oliveboard.in\/upcoming-government-exams\/?ref=contac-aib\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Check Upcoming Govt Exams<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-are-the-main-objectives-of-ddu-gky\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_are_the_Main_Objectives_of_DDU-GKY\"><\/span>What are the Main Objectives of DDU-GKY?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The scheme is designed with several interrelated objectives:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Diversifying income sources<\/strong> for rural poor households to reduce dependency on traditional agriculture or seasonal work.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Providing gainful employment<\/strong> to rural youth with sustainable and regular wages.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Supporting national initiatives<\/strong>, such as <strong>Make in India<\/strong>, <strong>Digital India<\/strong>, and <strong>Skill India<\/strong>, by creating a skilled workforce aligned with industry demands.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Promoting social inclusion<\/strong> by prioritising training for SCs, STs, minorities, women, and other vulnerable groups.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Reducing poverty<\/strong> and improving rural livelihoods through skill-based career opportunities.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-does-ddu-gky-provide-skill-training\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_does_DDU-GKY_Provide_Skill_Training\"><\/span>How does DDU-GKY Provide Skill Training?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>DDU-GKY follows a demand-led skill training approach.
