What is ASEEM Digital Platform and Why is it started?

The Ministry of Skill Development and Entrepreneurship has introduced Artificial Intelligence based 'ASEEM' digital platform to bridge the gap between the demand-supply of skilled employees in various fields. The purpose of this portal is to provide employment opportunities to the skilled and non-skilled people who have returned to villages and India due to corona disease.

Millions of people have lost their jobs all over the world, including India due to Corona disease, due to which millions of people have either returned to their country or returned to their villages. They have been called migrant workers.
Among these millions, many people were skilled laborers and many are non-skilled. Now, these people are sitting in their homes waiting for employment.
Taking steps in this direction, the central government has started a digital platform where the employer and the employee can interact with each other and discuss about employment. It has been called ASEEM digital platform. Let us know about it in detail now.
