Janta Land Promoters Pvt Ltd (JLPL) celebrated significant milestones in their mission to empower women through skill development at the JLPL Sewing Skill Development Centre located in Mataur, Sector 70, Mohali. The skill development centre was launched by JLPL with the support of Singer Corporation under the Government of India’s Skill India Mission, to help build self-reliance and independence for women in the community of Mataur.
The event “Presentation of Skill Development Certificates and Distribution of Singer Sewing Machines”was organized in collaboration with the Lions Club Panchkula Premier, District 321-A2 and graced by esteemed dignitaries including the Directors of JLPL and the honorable Chief Guest Lion Chaman Lal Gupta, PDG (Lions Past District Governor). The event saw the distribution of 10 Singer Sewing Machines to underprivileged girls and women.
JLPL started this initiative with a vision to empower the women and help them become independent. The key highlight of the event was the recognition of the 14 girls who graduated in the inaugural batch of the training center. Each girl received a skill development certificate, signifying not just their proficiency but also their growth and potential to lead independent lives. These certificates, awarded after passing a six-month diploma course as a sewing machine operator, hold value beyond mere credentials; they represent the knowledge and skill gained. The girls successfully completed the Sewing Machine Operator Level 4 Course under the NSQF framework at the JLPL skill development centre.
Presently the training center has 25 sewing machines including industrial machines, fashion maker machines, motorised machines, manual machines, etc, to support the design and execution of creative projects by the students. Every six months new batches of students will undergo training and receive course completion certificates, enabling them to take confident steps towards personal growth.
The Honourable Director of JLPL said the initiative is a testament to JLPL’s commitment towards creating meaningful opportunities for underprivileged communities. Gifts were also presented to the girls and the principal of the training center Mrs Durga Thakur as a token of gratitude for their dedication and efforts.
