Here is a rewrites version of the line:India’s leading IT giant, Infosys, will provide technical expertise to the Andhra Pradesh government to conduct a skills census.

Minister for HRD and IT, Nara Lokesh, praised Infosys for its role in the State’s Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) initiatives. The partnership aims to assess the existing skill levels of the State’s youth and provide training aligned with market demand. Lokesh also held a review meeting to discuss the statewide launch of the Skill Census program, instructing officials to include both organized and unorganized sectors to ensure comprehensive skill mapping. He highlighted the global demand for skilled workers and noted that training programs tailored to international requirements could create job opportunities abroad for around 2 lakh individuals. Additionally, Lokesh emphasized the importance of creating 20 lakh jobs for youth in both public and private sectors in the State over the next five years, as promised in the election manifesto. The Cabinet sub-committee will meet every 15 days, with the Chief Minister chairing the meeting once a month.
