Upskilling is no longer an alternative but a mandate of Industry 4.0 to sustain in the technologically enhanced industrial environment towards which India’s industrial sector is progressing at a rapid pace. The Govt. of India is targeting substantial growth of the manufacturing sector under Atmanirbhar Bharat, the job market is expected to swell. However, in to order adopt Industry 4.0, a highly skilled workforce is the need of the hour and indispensable to make the desired transition.
