Background of the Training

East Coast Energy Private Limited (ECEPL) is developing a coal based 2640 MW Super Thermal Power Plant near Bhavanapadu village, Santhabommali Mondal, Srikakulam District, Andhra Pradesh, India. The ECEPL proposes to take a proactive role in the overall development of the region for tangible economic growth and social development of the populace. Youth unemployment is one of the critical issues that need immediate attention across the country. The rapidly growing marginal workers, underemployment and youth unemployment have to be addressed on priority in all the development programmes. It is resulting in increasing financial stress to the family and also affecting peace and harmony of the society at large. The literacy rate and education level has improved significantly during last couple of decades but share of educated unemployed youth is also increasing with a rapid pace. In response to the high and growing rate of unemployment in Andhra Pradesh,
Bhavishya Bharat has developed a unique Youth Training Programme for the project

area of Bhavanpadu Thermal Power Project [BTPP] of ECEPL to enhance physical and mental strength of the youth through development of soft skills for motivating and realization of self potential to move towards self reliance and thereby improving the quality of their lives. The training programme provided opportunities to local youth for careers in Armed Forces, Paramilitary Forces and Police. The two months structured training program was organized at the Youth Training Center [YTC] established by ECEPL at Laxmipur Village. It is 58 KM from Srikakulam and 364 km from Hyderabad. The local youths were informed prior to the programme through distribution of pamphlets and village meetings. Though many youths applied for participation in the programme but amongst them only the selected ones could get this unique opportunity. Future of our society largely depends on the strength, vitality and spirit of the youth they form the way for a bright and peaceful tomorrow.
