Modi hands out 70,000 job letters to youth at Rozgar Mela
Prime Minister Narendra Modi today distributed more than 70,000 appointment letters to newly inducted recruits via video conferencing.
The Prime Minister, while addressing the appointees on the occasion, said, “During the ‘Azadi ka Amrit Mahotsav’, when the country is working on the path of development, it is a great honour to get the opportunity to work as a government employee. The people of this country have taken the resolution to make India a developed country.”
He said that the next 25 years are very important for India.
“Today every expert is saying that in a few years, India will be in the world’s top three economies. This means employment opportunities and citizen’s per capita income will increase,” PM Modi added.
Lashing out at the previous government, PM Modi said during their rule the banking sector witnessed massive destruction.
“Today India is one of those countries where the banking sector is considered to be the strongest but this was not the situation 9 years ago… Our banking sector has seen massive destruction during the previous govt. Today, we are able to make digital transactions but 9 years ago, phone banking was not for 140 crore people. People who were close to a specific family used to call Banks and provided them loans worth thousands of crores and these loans were never repaid. This ‘phone banking scam’ was one of the biggest scams during the previous govt,” PM Modi added.
The Rozgar Mela was held at 44 locations across the country. The recruitments are taking place across Central Government Departments as well as State Governments and UTs supporting this initiative.
