Raipur, 15 July 2023
While working on new and local dimensions of employment, the Government of Chhattisgarh is increasing employment opportunities in the state. New dimensions of local employment are now open from Bastar to Surguja. Old traditions are now becoming a source of income by joining employment. The unique model of employment is the subject of discussion in the whole country today, that is why today Chhattisgarh is the state with the lowest unemployment rate in the whole country.
Rural Industrial Park has become an important source of local employment and entrepreneurship development in villages today. By joining them, people of every class including women, youth, farmers and laborers are becoming financially empowered. The Government of Chhattisgarh is working towards taking forward the youth and encouraging them towards innovation, self-employment and entrepreneurship.
To give a positive shape to the energy of the youth, the Government of Chhattisgarh not only formed the Rajiv Yuva Mitan Club, but united the youth and provided such resources. By joining the club, the youth can do collective activities of tree plantation, cleanliness, drinking water conservation and other public awareness at the local level. Realizing the employment needs of the youth, the Government of Chhattisgarh has also taken out government jobs on a large scale. Along with this, regular organization of divisional level job fairs in private sectors are opening up avenues of employment in reputed companies of private sectors as well.
In the field of entrepreneurship, the youth desirous of self-employment are getting many opportunities from the Mukhyamantri Swarozgar Yojana. The Government of Chhattisgarh has implemented several innovative schemes at the grassroots level to encourage entrepreneurial youth in rural areas. The establishment of Rural Industrial Park has not only increased the employment opportunities at the local level, but the facility of land, electricity, water, road and banking linkages in the village itself is also promoting startups. In this way, the government is providing employment according to the local needs.
On the initiative of Chief Minister Mr. Bhupesh Baghel, new opportunities of self-employment are being made available to the youth apart from business. Especially in tribal-dominated and backward areas, the government has connected people with traditional works and is providing them employment at the local level. Locally available resources are not only being stored but also linked to their processing units set up and marketing locally. In this series, C-Marts have been established in the cities so that various products produced in the villages can be sold.
The youth are also benefiting a lot from the employment mission started by the Government of Chhattisgarh. Through this, the government has made a successful effort to connect industrialists, trainers and youths looking for employment through a single channel. The Government of Chhattisgarh has started Unemployment Allowance Scheme to eliminate the financial difficulties of the youth in the midst of further studies and preparation for competitive examinations. Along with this, the government is also running training programs to hone young talents and develop their skills.
Chhattisgarh government is continuously working on expansion of facilities in the field of sports and education. Work is also being done to promote sports activities, development of infrastructure and facilities and encouragement to sportspersons in the state. To nurture and encourage sports talents, big events like Chhattisgarhia Olympics and Youth Festival are also being organized, where priority is being given to youth participation.
