PANAJI: Former president Girish Chodankar pointed out on Tuesday that Prime Minister Narendra Modi has failed to create employment even in his own constituency Varanasi. As a result, youths from Uttar Pradesh are compelled to leave the state and seek jobs in various states, including Goa.
Chodankar, a Permanent Invitee of CWC, reacted to the recent incident, wherein a youth from Uttar Pradesh lost his life in Vasco Goa due to an LPG leakage in his rented room, while his three friends also from Varanasi admitted in hospital, Chodankar mentioned that these youths are compelled to seek employment in other states due to the failure of the double engine sarkar led by Narendra Modi and UP Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath.
“Prime Minister Narendra Modi has even failed to address the unemployment issue in his constituency Varanasi. He has failed to give solace to our youths seeking jobs,” Chodankar said, adding once the INDIA bloc government is formed ‘Pehali Naukri Pakki’ and 30 lakh government jobs will help youths.
“Our country is reeling under the unemployment crisis, unemployed youths are forced to seek jobs in other states. A significant number of young people from Uttar Pradesh migrate to Goa. In Goa, they typically rent small rooms and share accommodations to save their income. It is sad that one of the job seekers from UP died allegedly due to gas leakage in the rented room at Fakirgalli in Mangor Hill, while his three mates are undergoing treatment,” Chodankar said, expressing condolences to the bereaved family.
He mentioned that Prime Minister Modi and the BJP have not been successful in generating 2 crore jobs a year as per his promise.
“According to the Centre for Monitoring Indian Economy the unemployment rate was 7.6% in March. This is a biggest challenge to the government, which has boasted about employment on fake numbers,” Chodankar said.
He mentioned that the government’s employment creation policies are failed, as unemployed youths continue to seek jobs in other states.
