Prime Minister Narendra Modi is going to distribute over 71,000 appointment letters to newly recruited individuals today (December 23) through video conferencing, the Prime Minister’s Office (PMO) stated in a release on Sunday. According to the PMO, Prime Minister Modi will also address the gathering on this occasion.
The Rozgar Mela is a step towards fulfilling the Prime Minister’s commitment to prioritizing employment generation. It aims to provide meaningful opportunities for youth participation in nation-building and self-empowerment.
The Rozgar Mela is being held at 45 locations across the country. Recruits selected from across India will join various Ministries and Departments, including the Ministry of Home Affairs, Department of Posts, Department of Higher Education, Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, and Department of Financial Services, among others.
This initiative is part of the government’s ongoing effort to fill vacant positions in a mission mode. Events under the Rozgar Mela are being organized nationwide to induct new appointees into various Central Ministries, Departments, Central Public Sector Undertakings (CPSUs), and Autonomous Bodies, including health and education institutes and public sector banks.
Employment generation, coupled with improving the employability of youth, remains a key priority for the Central Government. The Government of India has launched several initiatives, including the Aatmanirbhar Bharat package, to provide fiscal stimulus, enhance business opportunities, and create large-scale employment.
Under this package, long-term schemes, programs, and policies have been introduced to make the country self-reliant while boosting employment opportunities. Key initiatives include the Aatmanirbhar Bharat Rojgar Yojana (ABRY), Production Linked Incentive (PLI) schemes, PM GatiShakti, Pradhan Mantri Mudra Yojana (PMMY), and Prime Minister Street Vendor’s AtmaNirbhar Nidhi (PM SVANidhi Scheme).
Additionally, flagship programs such as Make in India, Start-up India, Stand-up India, Digital India, Smart City Mission, Atal Mission for Rejuvenation and Urban Transformation, and Housing for All are geared towards generating nationwide employment opportunities for the youth.
State-level Rozgar Melas and other related initiatives are being managed by respective State Governments, further contributing to the mission of employment generation. (ANI)
