End their struggle, help them out
3/12/2022 12:00:44 AM

The grim unemployment scenario in Jammu and Kashmir contradicts the claims of the helmsmen that youth are the priority.
In the recently held examinations for the posts of Financial Accounts Assistants, two lakh candidates appeared for 972 posts. These figures reveal how unemployed youth in J&K are struggling to get a job.
When Article 370 was abrogated on August 5, 2019, the youth were promised that five lakh unemployed youth will be provided with jobs and the scenario will change.
During the past two years J&K Government has signed many MOUs and has received several investment proposals to set up business units. But on the ground nothing has changed. Paperwork is moving at a faster pace than the work on ground.
The moves which the government is making need to reflect. Youth are feeling disappointed and ditched.
One can understand that the government is trying to facilitate the investors but till new ventures arrive in J&K, the government needs to come up with a comprehensive plan for the youth who are jobless. They can’t remain unemployed till the new investments arrive.
It’s really strange that during the past two years bureaucrats haven’t been able to come up with a comprehensive job policy for youth.
Till date no quota has been fixed in jobs for the natives.
When J&K’s special status was done away with, people of Jammu had welcomed the move with a hope that the discrimination with the Jammu region would end and both the regions i.e. Jammu and Kashmir will be brought at par with each other. But the present dispensation has also followed the footsteps of the Kashmir centric rulers, who kept J&K confined to Kashmir only. The bureaucrats taking impulsive decisions without taking people of Jammu on board has hurt the common man.
The people in Jammu are feeling betrayed and left out. The government needs to take them in confidence and help the youth to eke out a decent living. This can be done by seeking suggestions for them and working out a plan so that they build their careers and do something constructive in their lives.
Keeping them busy with the exams and interviews for years together is making them disillusioned and this aspect needs to be addressed.
