1. If you have lactose intollerance you can't consume any products made from cow's milk or sheep milk. Goat milk is fine. So you can eat goat cheese all you like (tip: bread with goat cheese and honey, roasted for a few minutes, is really good). So no, skimmed milk is not fine. It's just cow's milk from which most of the fat has been removed (but not all). Lactose intollerance however deals with milk protein, not fat. Neither is butter (except 100% vegetable margarine), most chocolate, wey powder (used as a bulking agent in a LOT of packaged foods), etc. etc. etc..
2. No, skim milk does contain lactose. What you need is Lactose Free Milk and Milk products called "Lactaid". I don't know if they sell that in India, it may be under a different name brand...look in the milk section of the store, and read where it says "Lactose Free".
