Rozgar Mela 2024: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday distributed over 71,000 appointment letters to newly appointed recruits via video conferencing. During his address, PM Modi congratulated the new recruits and extended his best wishes to them.
"I have had many professional discussions with the youth of India in Kuwait. After coming here, my first program is with the youth of the country. I extend my heartfelt congratulations to all the youth and their families," he said, as reported by news agency ANI.
He emphasised that the government's top priority is to make full use of the potential and talent of India's youth.
"Through Rozgar Mela, we are continuously working in this direction. For the past 10 years, there has been a campaign in various government ministries, departments, and institutions to provide government jobs. Even today, over 71,000 youth have been appointed. In the last 1.5 years, our government has provided permanent government jobs to nearly 10 lakh youth. This is a massive record in itself," PM Modi said.
"In previous governments, no such initiative to provide permanent government jobs to youth in mission mode existed, but today, not only are millions of youth getting jobs in the country but these jobs are being provided with complete honesty and transparency," he highlighted.
The Prime Minister also mentioned that the development of any country happens through the strength and leadership of its youth.
Rozgar Mela is an initiative aimed at providing meaningful opportunities for youth to actively participate in nation-building and achieve self-empowerment.
The new recruits, chosen from across the country, will be joining various Ministries and Departments, including the Ministry of Home Affairs, Department of Posts, Department of Higher Education, Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, and Department of Financial Services, among others.
