To make Uttar Pradesh a hub of electric vehicle and drone technicians, the technical education department in Uttar Pradesh has decided to encourage technical and vocational institutes to introduce courses tailored to suit the requirements of these industries, officials said.
The industrial training institutes (ITIs) in the state could introduce courses in drone pilot and drone technicians’ course, they said.
“Electric vehicle and drone industries are two most booming segments in the technology sector. Experts suggest that these segments are set to expand in coming days. We want to enable students to benefit from this boom,” said secretary, technical education, Alok Kumar.
