The Minister for Human Resources Development Ramesh Pokhriyal unveiled the schemes which will be implemented by the All India Council of Technical Education (AICTE) on Wednesday. On the occasion, the minister unveiled a model curriculum for the diploma courses as well.
Close to 5000 students from the technical institutions will participate and attempt a Guinness record in making recycled cloth bags in order to promote female entrepreneurs in waste management. This will be a showcase for the revenue stream and also help in reducing the menace of single-use plastics caused to the environment.
