Governor Tamilisai Soundararajan emphasises on skill training to Adivasi students

Hyderabad: Telangana Governor Dr Tamilisai Soundararajan on Sunday called for the skill-based training to tribal students in order to help them excel at the global level.

The Governor was addressing the valedictory session of the two-week training programme on ‘Logic building skills of Adivasi Scheduled Tribe students’, organised by the National Institute of Technology, Warangal on virtual mode.

This is where the Adivasi tribal students need to get opportunities to attend high quality training,” she said.

The initiative is financially supported by the Raj Bhavan under the discretionary grants of the Governor.
