| Where are much hyped 84,000 jobs for youth; Jammuites ask Admin | | Good Governance Index | | Early Times Report
Jammu, Jan 23: Amid the trumpet being beaten up over the good governance index in Jammu, the social media on Sunday remained abuzz with the questions pertaining to the administrative inertia looming large in the region.
Netizens especially the youth questioned the Jammu and Kashmir administration’s non-serious approach in dealing with the surging unemployment in the region and how the tall claims of more than 80 thousand jobs to the educated youth have drastically fallen flat. “On one hand, the government here is claiming to be providing good governance to the citizenry of the erstwhile state while as on the other hand, the very government cannot in any manner negate the surging unemployment in Jammu. The youth here in droves are jobless. The industries are shrinking and there is very little being done to address such a crisis in hand. What we need is the real development on the ground, not something that is limited to the papers only and farce pictures are being shown to the outer world,” was how one social media user commented on the issue. There were scores of others who vent out their anger on social media, ruing joblessness and crises-ridden employment sector in Jammu. “How could there be good governance when youth in lacs are jobless. The government after the abrogation of Article 370 had promised employment at a very large scale. In fact this was being said that more than 80 thousand jobs are in the offing. Now when more than two years have passed, one must ask the government where are those jobs on the ground? Was that a simple jumla or something else. We owe an answer to this intriguing question.”
In the meantime, the government figures as old as six years reveal that the number of highly qualified educated youth was only swelling with each passing day.
The government has not even deemed it necessary to regularize the services of daly wagers in Jammu for decades and that their hardships are being undermined and sadistically ignored by the government sans any compunction.
Pertinent to mention here that according to the latest survey done by various government and non-government organizations, unemployment rate for Males in JK was 3.2 percent only while as the rate of females was whooping 20.2 percent. In neighboring states like Punjab it is 5.6% while as in Haryana it is 4.8%. In Delhi, it is 4.3% and in Himachal Pradesh the rate is 2.2%. |
