Govt ITI Shimla

ITI Principal

I extend my warm greetings to all visitors of the official website of Government ITI Shimla — students, parents, industry partners, and members of society.

Situated in the beautiful hilly region of Shimla, Government ITI Shimla serves as an important center for skill development and vocational training, especially for students coming from rural and remote areas of Himachal Pradesh. Our institute is dedicated to empowering youth with practical skills across various trades and domains, enabling them to earn a dignified livelihood and actively participate in the growth of the nation.

At Government ITI Shimla, we firmly believe that skill is strength. Many of our students are first-generation learners who come with determination and hope to build a better future for themselves and their families. Through quality training, hands-on practice, discipline, and guidance, we help them transform their potential into productive capability.

As stated in our ancient scripture, the Bhagavad Gita:

“कर्मण्येवाधिकारस्ते मा फलेषु कदाचन” (One has the right to work, but not to the fruits of work).


This timeless wisdom reminds us of the dignity of work and the importance of skillful action. At our institute, we instill this value by encouraging students to focus on learning, craftsmanship, and excellence in their chosen trades.

In addition to regular ITI trades, Government ITI Shimla actively conducts various government-funded skill development programs for the society at large. These initiatives are designed to upskill youth, unemployed individuals, and community members so that they can become self-reliant, confident, and lead a happy and respectable life.

Our success is driven by a dedicated team of qualified faculty and committed staff, who work tirelessly for the academic, technical, and personal development of students. Despite the challenges of a hilly terrain, our team remains motivated to ensure that quality training reaches every learner.

By nurturing skilled human resources in this hilly region, Government ITI Shimla proudly contributes to nation building through skill development, employment generation, and self-employment. We believe that when rural and hill-area youth are skilled, the nation becomes stronger.

I invite students and society to actively engage with our institute, take advantage of the opportunities available, and join us in our mission of “Skill India, Strong India.”


With Best Wishes,

Principal, Govt. ITI Shimla
