New Delhi, July 4 (IANS) Embracing lifelong learning is not only imperative but also an absolute necessity and the government is committed to creating an ecosystem that promotes it, Union Minister of State for Skill Development and Entrepreneurship (Independent Charge), Jayant Chaudhary, said on Thursday.

In his address at the ‘SKILLS Bridge Masterclass Series’ webinar, the minister said that Skill India Digital Hub (SIDH) is a leading example of how digital public infrastructure (DPI) can revolutionise learning and skill development.
