Ladwa : In a strong push toward building a self-reliant and skilled rural Haryana, M3M Foundation, under the leadership of Dr. Payal Kanodia, launched four new Skill Development Centres focused on empowering local women and youth through industry-relevant vocational training. The inauguration ceremony took place at the community center in Ward No. 1, Ladwa, where Ms. Suman Saini, Vice Chairperson of the Haryana State Council for Child Welfare, formally inaugurated the initiative. Dr. Payal Kanodia, Chairperson and Trustee of M3M Foundation, joined her at the event. Of the four centres inaugurated, one was launched on-ground in Ladwa, while the remaining three—in Khaira, Biholi, and Babain—were inaugurated virtually. Through digital connectivity, Ms. Suman Saini and Dr. Payal Kanodia interacted with beneficiaries across these locations, reinforcing the use of technology to bridge distances and drive inclusive development.
These centres, which include training in beauty therapy, computer operations, office assistance, and solar PV system repair, are part of M3M Foundation’s larger Skill Development Initiative aligned with Hon’ble Chief Minister Shri Nayab Singh Saini’s vision of creating employment-oriented opportunities in rural regions. Speaking at the ceremony, Ms. Suman Saini commended। “M3MFoundation’s efforts like these programmes not only generate livelihoods but also restore dignity and social standing, especially for rural women. I also acknowledge the government’s proactive role in driving awareness through gram panchayats, self-help groups, and colleges”.
Dr. Payal Kanodia shared that, “M3M Foundation is offering three-month vocational training programmes designed to enable youth aged 18–35, particularly school dropouts and the unemployed, to build employable skills. These training courses are intended to promote both employment and self-employment, ultimately contributing to the vision of a Viksit Haryana and Viksit Bharat”.
