Now after all the major festivities have concluded, the CM of UP is preparing to launch ‘Mission Rozgar’, which will provide employment to the unemployed or those who have lost their jobs due to the pandemic or otherwise. As per reports and plans,
the government has set a staggering target of employing over 50 lakh youths in Uttar Pradesh, within the span of November 2020 to March 2021. Under the aegis of this campaign, the youth will get a chance to apply for jobs in the government departments, councils, corporations and so on. New opportunities for the private sector are also in the pipeline.
An app & a web portal is also being developed by the Directorate of Training & Employment
Speaking about the action plan of ‘Mission Rozgar’, Uttar Pradesh Chief Secretary Rajendra Kumar Tiwari was quoted saying, “Under Mission Rozgar, a programme will be organised to create more employment and self-employment jobs in various departments, organisations, voluntary organisations, corporations, councils, boards and various local bodies of the state government.”
According to official data, an employment help desk will be created in every department and organization. It will inform the youth of the benefits of employment programs related to the respective departments. The chief secretary also said that a database of employment will be prepared in the state. Pertaining to this context, an app and a web portal is also being developed by the Directorate of Training and Employment and information related to employment will be updated on the portal, every fortnight.
In each district, there will be a committee under the chairmanship of the district magistrate who will prepare an action plan at the district level, for jobs and careers. The Directorate of Training and Employment in collaboration with private industries, will also arrange for employment fairs and will address all the pending recruitment cases.
Under the administrative departments, all the directorates, corporations, boards, commissions, etc. will nominate a nodal officer to keep everything on track. The entire ‘Mission Rozgar’ campaign will be conducted through Infrastructure and Industrial Development Commissioner (IIDC) and a high-level committee headed by the chief secretary will monitor the campaign monthly.
