Shillong, April 2: Dalmia Bharat Foundation (DBF), the CSR arm of Dalmia Bharat Ltd. (DBL), has established its second DIKSHa Centre in Thangskai, Luhmshnong, Meghalaya. The new centre will offer hands-on technical training in the Assistant Electrician course, with the annual capacity of 120 trainees.

The initiative is part of Dalmia Bharat Foundation’s commitment to skill development in the region. With a placement-focused approach, the programme is designed to bridge the skill gap and align young talent with industry demands.

In January this year, DBF launched its first DIKSHa Centre in the state in partnership with Jaintia Eastern College in Khliehriat. These initiatives mark a significant step in DBF’s mission to equip local youth with industry-relevant skills, enhancing their employability and access to sustainable livelihoods.

We appreciate the continued support of the local community and the Meghalaya Government in making this initiative a reality,” said Ashok Kumar Gupta, CEO, Dalmia Bharat Foundation.

The Thangskai centre is the fifth DIKSHa Centre in the Northeast, underscoring DBF’s dedication to expanding opportunities for skill enhancement and employment in underserved communities. It has trained over 1440 youth across Northeast India, with nearly 1083 securing employments in various industries. By establishing additional centres and diversifying training offerings, DBF aims to create stronger pathways to employment, contributing to the economic growth of the region.
