A video-conference will be used by Narendra Modi to announce the ‘Rozgar Mela’, a recruitment drive that will target 10 lakh people, on October 22, and 75,000 candidates will receive appointment letters during the event.
Providing jobs for the youth and ensuring citizen welfare will be a significant step forward, according to the PMO.
Prime Minister’s Office stated that all ministries and departments are working in a “mission mode” to fill existing vacancies against sanctioned posts.
New recruits will join 38 government ministries or departments across the country. The appointees will join the government at various levels in Group A and B (Gazetted), Group B (Non-Gazetted) and Group C. According to the report, appointments are being made for central armed force personnel, sub-inspectors, constables, LDCs, stenos, PAs, income tax inspectors and MTSs, among others.
Recruiting is done by ministries and departments either on their own or through recruiting agencies such as UPSC, SSC and the Railway Recruitment Board. According to the PMO, selection processes have been simplified and made tech-enabled to facilitate recruitment.
