The National Skill Development Corporation (NSDC) has partnered with Bhashini to translate skill training content into vernacular languages, Ved Mani Tiwari, chief executive officer at NSDC, posted on LinkedIn.

Both parties signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) in the presence of Tiwari and Amitabh Nag, chief executive officer at Bhashini.

“By improving access to skill courses in one’s own language, it will be used for Skill India Digital, where content in multiple languages will be made available,” he said.

NSDC’s collaboration with Bhashini will centre on online video translation services and converting existing videos into various languages, ensuring broader access to educational resources in diverse languages.

Bhashini is an initiative by the government of India to break the language barrier in the country with the power of AI. The initiative has developed tools that help translate content from popular languages like English to other Indic languages.

Last year, while speaking to the audience at the Kashi Tamil Sangamam in Varanasi, Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s speech was translated to Tamil in real-time using AI tools developed by Bhashini.
