Pillar: Economic Participation
West Delhi places 6,092.2 apprentices per lakh youth, better than the typical district. The Apprenticeship Placement Cell is the administrative engine behind that number, matching trainees to employers.
74% of registered enterprises are in services while 26% are in manufacturing. Only 12% of employment is in small and medium enterprises. 85% of school-age children are enrolled in higher secondary school (classes 9–12). Only 11% of ITI trainers are certified.
In West Delhi, which ranks 5 of 11 in Delhi for youth opportunity, the overall opportunity score is 63.1 out of 100. It trails the national picture on ITI seats per lakh youth at 361.3. On informal workers with any social-security cover at 0%, it sits close to the national mark.
