Shri Mahendra Nath Pandey, Union Minister of Heavy Industries

“Heavy manufacturing industry is one of the most important sectors in terms of employment generation, exports, and value addition to the economy. Any growth in this sector presents huge potential for the economy and is a step towards fulfilling Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi’s vision of an Aatmanirbhar Bharat.”

MHI collaborates with MSDEThe proposed QPs shall add value to existing in-house and shall have a blended mode of learning, along with On-the-job Learning (OJT).
