NDTV
PM Modi Diwali Job Fest: In June this year, PM Modi had asked various government departments and ministries to undertake the recruitment of 10 lakh people on a "mission mode" in the next year and a half.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi will launch a mega 'Rozgar Mela' of job fest, a drive to recruit 10 lakh people, on October 22 via video-conference and appointment letters will be given to 75,000 candidates during the ceremony, the PM's Office said on Thursday.
The PM's Office said this will be a significant step forward towards fulfilling the continuous commitment of the prime minister to providing job opportunities for the youth and ensuring welfare of citizens.
The development comes amid the opposition's constant criticism of the BJP-led government on the issue of unemployment. Opposition parties have alleged a lack of adequate employment opportunities, a charge rejected by the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP).
The drive will also help the BJP counter the Opposition in the poll-bound states of Himachal Pradesh and Gujarat.
