The D-day is less than 24 hours away, when
thousands of applicants will sit for the much awaited FDDI entrance exam.
Tomorrow footwear design and development institute is due to hold its multiple
choice entrance exam for which loads and loads of applicants are gearing
forward. The exam will be conducted on computer and will have a multiple choice
questions for which 1 mark will be awarded for every correct question and no
negative marking for an incorrect question.
This year there has been a record number of
applicants who have applied for the entrance exam. This is simply due to the
fact that footwear and leather goods industry is on full boom. Not only there
has been an increasing demand locally by Indian consumers but also there has
been a large international demand.
The foreign players have always been very
keen in employing Indian resources and setting up factories in India as far has
footwear is concerned; however India was not able to cater to an increasing
demand. Now after the successful implementation of the FDDI bill being passed
in Lok Sabha, the Ministry of Commerce has shown green light and is now aiming
to become world’s number 1 in production of leather goods. Currently due to
lack of manpower and proper skilled resources India stands at worlds number 2
superseded by China which is taking acre of most of the foreign demand.
Keeping this in mind the footwear and
leather goods industry wishes to employ more and more skilled students who can
effectively understand international demand and can thus become world’s number
one. The FDDI is therefore looking to open more institute
so that more and more students can acquire the required skills and can add to
the industry and eventually to the Indian economy.
