Even the Paithani sarees at Yewala are famous, accordingly skilled-based courses to make such sarees will be started. Also, there are some tribal areas in Nashik where honey and medicinal trees are found, this will also be included in the new courses.”

Along with those, paper factories, water management companies, and biodiesel are some of the important sectors. Accordingly, small courses will be made in these sectors, and they will be submitted to sub centres. After which they will be produced before the management council and after its approvals, by January these courses will actually start.”
