Matanand Welfare Foundation, in collaboration with Rotary District 3141, has partnered with the NCC Directorate Maharashtra to support its Yuva Drone Training Initiative, aimed at equipping young people with skills in drone technology and preparing them for emerging technology domains.
Under the first phase, selected participants will receive DGCA-approved Drone Pilot Training and become DGCA Certified Drone Pilots. The initiative follows discussions with the NCC Directorate Maharashtra under the leadership of Major General Vivek Tyagi, ADG, Maharashtra NCC.
The trained participants are expected to form a founding pool of DGCA Certified Drone Pilots and Drone Instructors, helping expand drone-training capabilities for NCC cadets across Maharashtra. The broader plan includes supporting an NCC-operated, DGCA-compliant Drone Training Centre of Excellence in the state.
“This initiative is about creating a multiplier effect by developing DGCA Certified Drone Pilots and Drone Instructors who can help extend these capabilities to thousands of young Indians. Emerging technologies such as drones can open new pathways for skills, employment and national service, and we are proud to contribute to this vision of Viksit Bharat @2047,” said Nikkhil K Masurkar, President, Matanand Welfare Foundation & CEO, Entod Pharmaceuticals.
The collaboration brings together Matanand Welfare Foundation, Rotary District 3141 and NCC Directorate Maharashtra with a focus on youth empowerment, technology-led skilling and nation-building, while laying the groundwork for wider training in drone and other emerging technologies.
