The Imphal East District Skill Committee on Friday organised a placement linked career guidance programme at Maharaja Bodhchandra College in Imphal East in their bid to give job opportunities to the unemployed youth.

The target group is between 15 to 45 years who have passed eight standards. The sector for replacement includes aviation, beauty and wellness sectors, constructions, cruise-line, hospitality, plastic engineering, and tourism among others.
Deputy commissioner of Imphal East Khumanthem Diana while speaking to the media on the sideline of the programme said the government had organised such a programme to give the youths the opportunity to choose the skill development programme which match their passion.
