New Delhi: Amid the gloomy reports of job cuts & retrenchments by some top IT companies, Prime Minister is set to make Diwali special for as many as 75,000 youths and their families, as he will ‘gift’ jobs to them, days ahead of the festival of lights.
This Saturday, PM Modi will connect with 75,0000 newly inducted recruits via video conferencing and hand over appointment letters for jobs in various ministries & government departments.
The move comes as part of government’s momentous drive to infuse fresh energy in various govt departments by recruiting over 10 lakh personnel over next few years. Under the Rozgar Mela, to be inaugurated by Prime Minister on October 22, a target has been set to recruit 10 lakh employees.
In the first tranche, 75,000 new recruits will get their appointment letters from the Prime Minister. PM Modi will also address the new appointees on the occasion.
The new recruits are likely to be inducted in as many as 38 ministries & govt departments. The job category ranges from Group A to Group – B (Gazetted), to Group – B (Non-Gazetted) and Group – C. The posts which are likely to be filled in the mega recruitment drive include mostly Central Armed Force Personnel, Sub Inspector, Constable, LDC, Steno, PA, Income Tax Inspectors among others.
The recruitment drive will give a fillip to working potential of government departments as many are plagued with limited staff strength. This also comes as part of Prime Minister’s commitment to generate employment for youth & make them capable in contributing to the nation’s growth.
The Ministries & Departments are working in a mission mode to fill up the existing vacancies and are harnessing the potential of technology to speed the recruitment procedure.
