As part of the UK-India bilateral program ASPIRE, the UK government presented a roadmap for establishing an Intelligent Mobility Skill Centre in the state, announced in July of this year. The centre, managed by the state government, will offer training in various areas, particularly catering to the EV ecosystem. The UK government's role is in developing the roadmap, which was unveiled on Tuesday.
The state government is currently in discussions regarding the location of the skill center, with a couple of options under consideration. The final decision on the location will depend on the available infrastructure, according to an official statement.
