Rising unemployment, consequences and solutions.

 

RISING UNEMPLOYMENT

“#We_want_job” was the top trend on Twitter today. Thousands of people had demanded timely recruitment in government jobs where a large number of posts are vacant.  Literally, the government has turned deaf ears towards the demand of the youth. The same government promises to provide an exhaustive number of jobs in its election manifesto but hardly works in this direction. India has an enormous youth population of sixty-four percent people being under working age group. Such a large working force could be of great value to the development of any country but unfortunately, India has not completely utilized its human resource well. In fact, instead of providing jobs, the government seems helpless as the number of public sector jobs is decreasing every year. Nevertheless, we cannot blame the government for the whole scenario of the youth. One of the major causes the rising unemployment is overpopulation resulting in cutthroat competition and faster utilization of the available resources.

An empty mind is a devil's workshop. An unemployed person is very vulnerable to get into anti-social activities like theft, robbery, fraud, and so on to meet his requirements. Rising unemployment is a major cause of anxiety and depression among youths. Many end up taking their lives battling the everyday pressure to sustain their families.

It is a hardcore fact that unemployment is one of the biggest issues and no government is efficient to tackle it. The problem can only be resolved by the combined effort by the youth as well as the government. It is time for the youth to realize that they cannot completely rely on public sector jobs as the government has limited resources. The youth will have to start being self-dependent by setting up a business and becoming an entrepreneur. The government on the other hand needs to support youth in such activities. The government must also use its entire means to ensure employment to every deserving candidate. For this the essential vacancies should be filled on time, emphasis should be laid on industrialization and proper infrastructure development which generates a large number of jobs. All the small-scale industries should be helped with monetary funds. Indian handicrafts must be encouraged. Proper training should be provided to the small-scale industries so that they could be digitalized and sell their products throughout the world. Agriculture must be modernized. Efforts must also be laid on population control measures by spreading awareness about the benefits of small families. It is crucial time we realize India’s youth power and provide them encouragement. It is only then India could leap towards success with the energy and enthusiasm of youth.

The bystander world on the Taliban insurgency

 It is not only Afghanistan’s government that has surrendered to the insurgency of the Taliban but also the world and humanity have succumbed to the influence of these terrorists. What could be worse than the world being a quiet spectator of the devastation taking place in an entire nation in the twenty-first century? What are the Human Rights organizations doing when it’s time for them to show their presence? The lives of more than 38 million Afghani men and women are in dismay. Their trepidation is evident in the grisly pictures and videos from the Kabul Airport where people could be seen falling to death after they clung to the underbelly of a plane in a desperate attempt to leave their country.  The countries in the world are busy closing their embassies and safely evacuating people from Afghanistan. Some countries accepting Afghanis, as refugees in their county, is a welcome step. However, it is not about a few lakhs of refugees who could take shelter in different parts o...

Discipline misunderstood

What if the salt law was never broken? What if Mangal Pandey behaved like a disciplined sepoy and used the greased cartriges, introduced by the British, without hesitation? Would there be a revolt for our freedom then? I wonder the answer to these questions. Every great uprising was a result of some brave ideas, thoughts, and visions put forward by independent thinkers. May it be our own Indian past or the American revolution. The king, the government or the monarch, whoever it may be  in the dominant position always try to discipline their people. And the sole reason behind this that the powerful always try to keep a strong hold over their subject. This strong hold will only be possible if the people blindly obey their leaders. This is for the reason schools, offices, workplaces maintains a fix set of rules and disciplines. This discipline , which is necessary for proper functioning of the institution,  also tends to create a divide between its management and fellow students ...

The Gen Z bag

Studying in an extravagant coaching center in Connaught Place, Delhi may not have been very beneficial in giving desired output in my competitive examination but it proved to be an overall different and fun experience. I am someone who likes to observe things and traveling from a low-budget Pg in Laxmi Nagar to the posh business and tourist area every day gave me the chance to observe. Observation is not a one-day thing, but you do it over a period of time and it is when you notice stark differences in the character and habits of people from different backgrounds.  It was our first day of coaching and the first-day anxiety prevails. The shyness, sitting quietly and just observing faces, ice-breaking with your first bench mate, and the overly boosting first-day enthusiasm to emerge the brightest among all. The classroom setup was different from what I expected it to be. Taking admission in Delhi, I expected the coaching to be thronged with Delhites but apparently, it was the UP and ...
