AP cities lag behind Tier-II capitals on GDP in a big way

Amaravati: Major cities in Andhra Pradesh, including those in the capital region, contribute only 25% to the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of the state - a far cry from cities like Hyderabad and Bangalore that contribute 70% and 61% to the GDPs of their states respectively.
An internal analysis of the Capital Region Development Authority (CRDA) says Vijayawada and Guntur, which fall under the capital region, contribute only 5% each to the state.

CRDA conducted this analysis to assert the needs of the new capital that can contribute to the economic growth of the state. According to the analysis, top capitals that contribute a lion's share of GDP to their states are Mumbai (60%), Kolkata (50%), Ahmedabad (36%) and Chennai (35%) and are also major growth engines.
"Our analysis will tell us the need to develop a new capital which can generate lot of revenue and job opportunities" CRDA commissioner Ch Sreedhar told TOI.
In the case of Mumbai, sectors like media, finance, services, rubber, plastics, electrical machinery and textiles make up the major contributors to its GDP. Bangalore's major sectors are IT, aviation, automobiles and auto components, knowledge-based industries, agri and food processing and telecom while in Hyderabad, IT and pharmaceuticals are its strong areas.
In the case of Ahmedabad, textiles, chemicals, manufacturing, casting and forging, and data processing and diamond processing are the key driving sectors. Kolkata benefits from textiles, fishing, leather, jute products, tea, gems and jewellery.

90,000 skill corporation-trained youth got jobs, says official

Aim is to encourage youth to ideate, plan and innovate

The purpose of setting up the Andhra Pradesh State Skill Development Corporation (APSSDC) was to help people gain employable skills and the Corporation, in a short span, had achieved 34% success, said K.V. Satyanarayana, CEO, on Tuesday.

Speaking to reporters on the sidelines of a day-long workshop on Entrepreneurship Educators’ Bootcamp, where students of various colleges were given insights into key aspects of entrepreneurship, Mr. Satyanarayana said 90,000 of the 3.5 lakh candidates trained by the Corporation had gained employment.

He said realising that the youth in the State were losing employment opportunities mainly due to lack of adequate exposure, the government had formed the Skill Development Corporation to impart training to students by roping in international experts to ensure quality teaching-learning process.

He said the Corporation was imparting a six-month skill development course for regular students in both engineering and non-engineering streams. Those opting for this course would be better equipped to face competition in the job market, he said, adding that students of schools and colleges were benefited by the training sessions organised by the Corporation. Prof. Gregory Collier and Krish Nangegadda of Northeastern University, U.S., conducted a session on ‘business model’ and expected outcome of such programmes followed by a question-and-answer session wherein the participants sought clarifications to their myriad doubts.

Sessions on “Designing the Venture’ and ‘Design Thinking for Entrepreneurs’ were conducted by Marc Mayer through video conference.

Mr. Satyanarayana said the endeavour of the APSSDC was to inculcate a new thinking among the youth who would be encouraged to ideate, plan and innovate.

He said the government was eager to usher in a climate of a healthy entrepreneurship not just in cities but also in the rural pockets through start-ups.

APSSDC Special Secretary Ganta Subbarao said the workshops would help raise awareness among the student community. The Corporation, in tie-up with international organisations, was trying to familiarise the youth with the world trends and the latter should make the best of it, he said.
