Abstract: Entrepreneurship has become an important aspect in the development of a country. It helps in the upgradation of a Nation?s economy and hence contributes in its growth and social development. Government of Assam has implemented a wide range of policies and schemes related to entrepreneurship. The State Institute of Panchayat and Rural Development (SIPRD) is one such organization that provides a number of skill development programmes and trainings as well for today?s generation. But the recent statistics shows that the number of enterprises in Assam is comparatively lower than that of the other states of India. Moreover, many skilled entrepreneurs are still lagging behind financially. This paper attempts to find out the different skill development facilities that are given by SIPRD for rural entrepreneurship and to study how these programmes or facilities encourages the people of Assam to have their own startups.
