Very good initiative

They should have done this many years ago. Perhaps they should also do an ITI program if not being done already.

Actually they have:

Maruti to train 2100 youth annually in car service and repair

Maruti to start 15 skill centres across India by August 2017

Suzuki to establish Industrial Training Institute in Gujarat

Don't know if any of these plans were executed and are running successfully today but attempts were made as early as 2015!
