Candidates asked to verify private ITIs’ credentials

VILLUPURAM: Collector In-charge C.Kathiravan has warned of stringent action against those unauthorised private Industrial Training Institutes (ITIs) that are playing a trick on the gullible candidates.

In a statement released here Mr.Kathiravan noted that in the Tiruchi region, comprising Tiruchi, Karur, Perambalur, Villupuram, Cuddalore, Nagapattinam, Thiruvarur, Thanjavur and Ariyalur there were 15 government-run ITIs and 190 private ITIs.

Certain institutes were making false claims that they were duly recognised either by the State government or the Central government and were also placing misleading advertisements.

Therefore, Mr.Kathiravan called upon the candidates to be wary of these institutes and verify their authenticity before sending applications.
