The famed demographic dividend of India that could have been a big asset, might be turning into a liability.
The rising unemployement in India in 2019 is a big headache for the government. The potential benefit of demographic dividend is squandered through poor educational policies that have left the vast majority of the employable-age youth with poor skills and qualifications, in terms of employability.
A huge chunk of the youth are qualified with no more than 10th pass or 12th pass qualifications. Even those who have cleared undergraduate degrees have not equipped themselves with employable skills, which makes it difficult for them to be employed.
Consequently most of them are looking to land up in some sort of Govt Job with any qualification like 10th pass jobs, 12th pass jobs, ITI jobs and the likes of it.
They mainly depend on a few websites like I want Salary, Govt Jobs Mania, Sarkari Result for getting the latest Govt Job alerts.
