Is There Enough Employment for the Youth of India? What Can Be Done?


The number of new entrants in the job market and at the same time the number of new jobs created has never been coterminous in our country. As a result there has been a large vacuum as far as the employment scenario in the country is concerned. What is meant by large vacuum as far as the employment scenario is concerned is meant that unemployment problem is quite grave in our country. Unemployment in our country is in various forms and types like—seasonal unemployment, educated unemployment, disguised unemployment etc., to name a few in this regard. Hence the answer to this question, whether, there is enough employment for the youth of India is in the negative as far as our country is concerned.
At the same time, our country India is a bounty both in terms of human resources as well as natural resources. It is only due to this reason that our country attracted many foreign invaders to our country since time immemorial. Now at this juncture, we need to ponder what’s wrong with the employment scenario in our country and what is the way to overhaul the employment scenario in our country. In this regard the following points are cited below with regards to finding a way ahead as far as improving the employment scenario in our country
Firstly, to improve the employment scenario, we need to transform our huge population into human resources. I think, those people who are at the helm of affairs in our country has not been able to harness our bounty of human resources as well as natural resources in the proper sense of the term and thereby utilise it for the upliftment of the common masses of our country. It is only when we will be able to transform the bounty of huge resources of our country for the upliftment of the common masses then only we will be able to find a way ahead to curtail the unemployment problem in our country.
Secondly, it is seen that most of our youth has a lackadaisical attitude towards work. They are always in search of white collar jobs. Therefore, most of them in this endeavour become victims of frustration as such jobs are very less in number in comparison to the demand for such jobs. Therefore, it is imperative that the youths of the country improve a work culture without discriminating among the various jobs/ works as available in the economy of our country.
Thirdly, I think in the recent years especially after the globalisation era of the 1990s there has been a phenomenon of job-cut in our country. This has escalated the unemployment scenario in the country. Therefore, the government should frame proper policies to reabsorb those people who have lost their jobs in a proper way. On the contrary, discontentment, frustration and anxiety would become the order of the day for them.
Fourthly, only government jobs or corporate jobs or jobs in the private sector are not enough to solve the unemployment problem of our country. What is required, I think, is to make Indian youths self-dependent by providing them the necessary skills for doing something so that, he/she does not depend only on the government jobs. Here, if we can inculcate the youths of the country with skills to earn something, then only we can transform our huge population into human resources especially in a country like India.
Last but not the least, many youths of our country have gone offshores for better fortunes. In this regard, the Government of India should frame proper policies, so that, these people who are working abroad may be encouraged to come back to India and involve themselves in the development of the country by investing the money that they have earned abroad. In this way two purposes would be solved, firstly, job-creation in our country and secondly, these people who have left abroad will be able to assimilate themselves with the roots of their motherland and thereby ushering in its development.

Psychologists Spot a Key Personality Trait That Could Be Shared by All Humble People

-
Psychologists have identified an important trait that could be shared by truly humble people - something called 'hypo-egoic nonentitlement'. That simply means that you don't believe your positive qualities and life achievements entitle you to any kind of special treatment from others That's slightly different to having a tendency to downplay your strengths and your achievements, which you might ordinarily associate with being humble, and it gives us a new insight into the essence of humility. The researchers – psychologists Chloe Banker and Mark Leary from Duke University in North Carolina – note that humility is of "particular interest" because of its links to "an array of desirable psychological and interpersonal outcomes". Just as excessive ego can lead to a variety of personal and social problems (take a look at the world around us). The loose definition and understanding of humility means it's hard to reach a scientific co

How Fan Fiction Can Transform Student Writing (and Reduce Your Grading)

By Meghan Laslocky September 3, 2020 HARRY POTTER AND THE PRISONER OF AZKABAN DANIEL RADCLIFFE RGR Collection / Alamy Stock Photo Ideally, writing shouldn’t feel like a chore to students, and grading writing shouldn’t be overwhelming for teachers. An endless stream of essays—and rule-based feedback on grammar, spelling, and punctuation—can have a chilling effect on the motivation of everyone in the classroom. Couple all those rules with topics or assignments a student has no interest in, and you’re likely to get an uninspired, frustrated kid, and a teacher who doesn’t feel up to grading the work.

The Best Eighteenth-Century Poems Everyone Should Read   interestingliterature 50 years ago The eighteenth century was the great Age of Enlightenment, but also Romanticism. The Augustan or neoclassical poetry of Alexander Pope and others eventually gave way to the Romantic meditations of Wordsworth and Coleridge. Below, we introduce ten of the greatest and most emblematic poems of the eighteenth century. We’ve confined ourselves to poems written in the English language here, to make the task even vaguely achievable. Alexander Pope,  The Rape of the Lock .  The neoclassical return to the worlds of ancient Greece and Rome – coupled with a desire for rationalism and order – dominated the first half of the eighteenth century in English verse. And nobody better personified this neoclassical ideal than Alexander Pope (1688-1744), who made his name while still in his early twenties with this mock-heroic satire on the vanity of upper-class society in the early eighteenth century.
