Expressing optimism over India’s employment scenario, Union Minister of State for Chemicals and Fertilizers Bhagwanth Khuba has said that unemployment rate in the country is the lowest among the developing countries and Pradhan Mantri Mudra Yojana (PMMY) has helped in achieving this self-sustaining employment.
He said the Rozgar Melas being organised by the Central government are in line with the wishes of Prime Minister Narendra Modi to ensure transparency and corruption-free recruitment process. He alleged corruption and biases used to happen in recruitment earlier. He added post pandemic, India has achieved 7.2 per cent GDP growth rate which is the highest in the world. Even economic powerhouses like US and China could not achieve this rate of growth.
The Minister also said there is an enormous improvement in the lives of poor in India. The recent studies show that more than 15 crore people emerged out of poverty in the country in the last nine years. He noted farmers, through an innovative system called e-NaM, can sell their crops across India where they can get more profit. As many as 11.5 crore farmers are benefiting through DBT via PM Kisan scheme and getting Rs 6,000 per year.
