Prime Minister’s Tribute to Prof C K Prahalad

     

Extract of Tribute acknowledging Prof C K Prahalad’s significant contribution to Skill Development in India

“…But the most intimate contact I had with him when he came to me and said what would you like to do for India at 75 and he suggested there is nothing more exciting than to have 500 million young Indians fully prepared to face the challenges of living in this modern competitive world. And he was very happy that I endorsed that vision of his. We formed a Skill Development Council and he was the moving spirit behind what motivated and what propelled the idea of skill development in the last four or five years…”

Dr Manmohan Singh
Hon’ble Prime Minister of India at
Prof C K Prahalad’s Memorial Service, 8 July 2010, New Delhi
