Prime Minister Narendra Modi virtually handed out appointment letters to 71,000 new recruits at the Rashtriya Rozgar Mela on Thursday, claiming that startups have created over 40 lakh direct and indirect jobs in the country.
The Prime Minister stated that the Rashtriya Rozgar Mela demonstrates the government’s commitment to uplifting youth spirit and providing job opportunities. “Startups have created over 40 lakh direct and indirect jobs, demonstrating India’s tenacious startup culture.” Today, India has the world’s fastest-growing economy. The policy and strategy being followed by today’s New India have opened up new possibilities and opportunities in the country,” PM Modi said on the occasion.
Stating that over 70,000 youth have got government jobs in various departments of the central government on the day of Baisakhi today, the Prime Minister said that the process of giving govt jobs in NDA and BJP-ruled states is going on at a fast pace.
“Appointment letters have been handed over to more than 22 thousand teachers in Madhya Pradesh yesterday,” he said.
Mentioning the growing Defence sector in the country, PM Modi said that India has exported Defence equipment worth Rs 15,000 crore.
“An approach was dominant in the country for decades that the Defence equipment can only be imported. We did not believe in our own country’s manufacturers. Our government changed this approach. Our armed forces have prepared a list of 300 such equipment and weapons which will be made in India only. Today, India is exporting Defence equipment worth Rs 15,000 crore,” he said.
Detailing the self-reliance in various sectors of the country including drones, the Prime Minister said that youth are engaging in new-age technologies.
“New India’s youth are increasingly involved in drone manufacturing and becoming drone pilots. For decades our children used to play with toys imported from abroad. We started promoting the indigenous toy industry, and this created new employment opportunities for our Yuva Shakti. The capital investment in infrastructure projects propels employment generation & creates diverse opportunities for Yuva Shakti,” he said.
He lauded the health sector in the country and said that it is becoming the best example of employment generation.
“The ports sector is developing. The health sector is also becoming the best example of employment generation. Every infrastructure project is generating employment opportunities. Farm mechanisation has increased in the Agriculture sector which has increased job opportunities in the rural area,” he said.
“Till 2014 there were 74 airports in India, now there are 148 airports. Due to the increase in airports, new employment opportunities have also opened up,” the Prime Minister added.Meanwhile, the Rozgar Mela is a step towards fulfilling the Prime Minister’s commitment to give the highest priority to job creation.
The Rozgar Mela is expected to serve as a catalyst for additional job creation and to provide meaningful opportunities for youth empowerment and participation in national development.
