Govt boosted employment in traditional as well as emerging sectors: PM Modi

New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi asserted on Saturday that his government has boosted employment opportunities in traditional as well as emerging sectors like renewable energy, defence exports and automation.

Distributing appointment letters at a virtual event to nearly 51,000 people recruited in different government departments as part of ‘Rozgar Mela’, he said the exercise underscores his government’s commitment to the youth in the country.

The government is not only providing employment but also maintaining a transparent recruitment process and efforts have been made to restructure and streamline the examination procedure, Modi stressed.

“Rozgar Mela underscores our government’s commitment to the youth,” he said, addressing the recruits through a virtual event.

“Today, India is equipping its youth with skills and education to harness emerging opportunities. India’s trajectory and the pace of its progress are generating new employment prospects across all sectors,” he said.
