Seekho aur Kamao" is a skill development scheme launched by the Ministry of Minority Affairs, Government of India, in 2013. The name of the scheme means "Learn and Earn" in Hindi. Its main aim is to provide job-oriented skill training to the youth belonging to minority communities such as Muslims, Christians, Sikhs, Buddhists, Parsis, and Jains.
This scheme helps young people learn professional skills in fields like IT, retail, construction, healthcare, and more, so they can find better job opportunities or start their own businesses. After completing the training, the candidates receive a certificate and support for employment or self-employment.
The scheme also focuses on including women, school dropouts, and youth from backward areas, giving them a chance to build a better future through skills and work.
In short, "Seekho aur Kamao" is a powerful step toward empowering minority youth with skills, confidence, and financial independence.
