In Assam, 51-year-old farm owner and travel agency operator Baruah completed the Kisan drone operator course. He modernized his farming practices and began capturing Assam’s scenic beauty, boosting his travel business.
In Rajasthan, 55-year-old technician and instructor Prafulla Rawat used SIDH’s employability and entrepreneurship courses to enhance his teaching. However, he urged the platform to expand its offerings in Indian languages, especially Hindi. Similarly, 54-year-old Delhi teacher Sanjiv Nigam enrolled in the Google Cloud Generative AI course.
