Low Job Opportunities In India

Job Opportunities – Being unemployed or jobless means a person who is looking for employment and he or she is currently not being employed. Job is the preliminary stage for a person to climb the staircase of the accomplishment.

But now for a person to seek a job is diminishing.

The sum of unemployment in India is increasing. In 2017, 18.3 million people were unemployed in India and in 2018 18.06 million people were unemployed.

The expansion of business is slower as it cast a shadow upon the employment of others.

The unemployment is increased doubled since 2017. Jobless has become a major problem the country is facing. It is believed that employment rate is declining due to women are leaving jobs and male employment rate is very little.According to Labour Bureau Statistics, India has become most unemployed nation in the world. The biggest challenge of the fast emerging in India is their inequality and joblessness.Self-employment in our country is diminishing and jobs are continuously falling. The gap between rich and poor has increased due to which inequality has increased in high scale.

Job Opportunities – In terms of population, India is the second largest populated country in the world. The large population of young could become our strength, but due to lack of sufficient employment in the country, number of youth are being unemployed.

Societies have been trying to reduce the unemployment. Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) gives an importance to the continuous, inclusive and sustained economic development to promote and produce employment by 2030. By 2020, noticeably reduce the amount of youth not in employment, education or training’ but also in working to fulfilling the goals and generates employment for all.

There are various schemes like Skill India, Make in India, Prime Minister’s Employment Generation Programme (PMGEP), Pradhan Mantri Rojgar Protsahan Yojana, and Pradhan Mantri Kaushal VikasYojana play an important role in this.

The Ministry of Skill Development and Entrepreneurship was formed in 2014 by the government. Pradhan Mantri Kaushal VikasYojana was launched in 2015, its aims to develop the skill of the youth and make them self-employed. But there were many obstacles to the success of this scheme.But before the scheme began, there was no pre-assessment done of the requirement of the industries and this kind of skills wasprovided to youth, resulting in a total mismatch when the scheme was launched.

The level of training being provided was below standard and not of the highest quality.

MNREGA is a law in our country that guarantees 100 days of employment to everyone in rural areas, though in one hand, the agricultural sector is not able to bear the pressure and on the other hand, people are not required to have the skills required for other jobs. The concept of inclusive development isthe growth of people of all sections of society, castes and communities. Therefore, it is essential to rise the public expenditure and services on education and health and special attention is paid on employment generation.

Job Opportunities – Though there are many attempts made to increase employment for youths but they are being unemployed and jobless even after numerous attempts. India should focus on this matter and make more efforts to decease it.
