Bengaluru: Former minister K J George has established on Sunday a skill development centre in his Assembly constituency, Sarvagna Nagar. The training will help citizens who have been affected by the pandemic to get jobs or set up their own business.

The skill development centre in Jeevanahalli of Sarvagna Nagar Assembly constituency has been set up to set right this deficiency," said former minister for Bengaluru development and town planning, George.
"The skill development centre has been set up in collaboration with Don Bosco Tech Society which has started courses in air-conditioning, electrical technician and computer training. Steps have been taken to ensure jobs after training", he added.
The skill development centre has already started functioning with the first batch of 90 candidates and will be formally inaugurated by Skill Development Minister Dr Ashwath Narayan on September 30.
