With an investment of 4000 crore to set up, Maruti Suzuki India will set up a skill development center in Gujarat, even as it is trying to restore normalcy at its Manesar plant in Haryana.
The plan was conveyed to Cheif Minster Narendra Modi by Osamu Suzuki (Chairman of the company) during a meeting in Gujarat today.
Suzuki, along with Maruti Suzuki India (MSI) Chairman R C Bhargava and Managing Director and CEO Shinzo Nakanishi, called on Modi at his residence.
"I came to thank Mr Modi because he visited me in Japan, and I came (to India) to attend AGM of Maruti," Suzuki told reporters after the meeting.
Bhargava said Suzuki had informed Modi about Maruti Suzuki India plans to set up a skill development center in Gujarat. Initially 500 people would go to Japan for training to get used to the Japanese culture of working.
"Skill development is another area necessary for the establishment of a new industrial empire... Mr. Suzuki has mentioned about making a scheme by which up to 500 technicians, supervisors can be trained before we start production here," Bhargava said.
An institute would also be set up in Gujarat so that people are trained on how to work in an industrial culture, he said.
Besides, a center to train trainers would be established before starting production at the new plant near Mehsana.
