CM inaugurates job fair at KLS Gogte Institute of Technology
“The employment policy being implemented in Karnataka is innovative. It will help the youth of the State not just face challenges of today, but also of tomorrow,” Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai said in Belagavi on December 23 while addressing the gathering after inaugurating a job fair organised by the Department of Skill Development, Entrepreneurship and Livelihood at KLS Gogte Institute of Technology.
“The policy is future-looking because it speaks in detail about skill training, industry requirements, entrepreneurship, and the State Government’s participation. The policy has definite guidelines about creating jobs for women. It does not just have provisions to create jobs for engineers or graduate. It also speaks of how to create employment for school dropouts after equipping them with skills that could make them employable. The policy would help increase the employment potential in urban and rural areas, and among IT and other sectors,” he said. It facilitates organisation of job fairs by various government departments. He claimed that Karnataka was the first State to formulate such a policy.
