Bihar Govt Promises 1 Crore Jobs, Boosts Entrepreneurship For Youth And Women

Bihar’s newly formed NDA government has renewed hopes among the state’s youth and women with its ambitious promise to generate 1 crore jobs and employment opportunities. Chief Minister Nitish Kumar has indicated that over the next five years, the state will be steered rapidly towards self-reliance, with large-scale recruitment planned across multiple departments. New government openings are expected in sectors including the Railways, Bihar Staff Selection Commission (BSSC), and administrative services.

This initiative aligns with the government’s broader vision of “Sashakt Bharat-Atmanirbhar Bihar.” Alongside job creation, the state is also promoting entrepreneurship, encouraging young people to become job creators rather than job seekers.

The Mahila Rozgar Yojana, aimed at empowering women financially, has emerged as a significant driver of socio-economic change in the state. The joint initiative of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Chief Minister Nitish Kumar has reportedly enabled 3.6 crore families to establish their own enterprises.

From agriculture, animal husbandry, and food processing to cosmetics and small start-ups, women-led businesses are expanding across both urban and rural Bihar. In 8,056 village panchayats, a strong culture of women entrepreneurs is taking root. Issues of unemployment and security that existed before 2005 have given way to growing confidence among women, who are increasingly stepping into economic roles.

The government’s commitment to generating 1 crore jobs has sparked optimism among Bihar’s youth preparing for various competitive examinations. Students say the announcement has renewed their determination and uplifted their confidence.

Ananya Priya, a student, said the promise of jobs is “a boon for young people” and has revived hopes for thousands of aspirants preparing for years.

Aditya, another student, noted that with simultaneous opportunities for employment and entrepreneurship, “the younger generation feels more optimistic about the expanding job landscape in Bihar.”
