In a significant development, Prime Minister Narendra Modi conducted a virtual distribution of approximately 71,000 appointment letters to newly recruited individuals in various government departments and organizations. The event, known as the Rozgar Mela, was held across 45 locations throughout the country on Tuesday.
Streamlining the application process and eliminating corruption
During the address, PM Modi highlighted the positive changes brought about by technology in the recruitment process. He mentioned how, in the past, applying for a government job involved standing in long queues for hours to collect application forms. However, with the advent of digitalization, the entire process, from application submission to result declaration, has become online.
Furthermore, PM Modi emphasized that there is no longer a requirement for interviews for Group C and D positions. This measure has effectively curtailed the opportunities for corruption and nepotism.
Government schemes and policies driving employment opportunities
PM Modi emphasized that every government scheme and policy is focused on creating new employment opportunities for the youth. He pointed out that in the last nine years, the Indian government has invested approximately Rs 34 lakh crore in capital expenditure, which has contributed to job creation.
