PM distributes about 70,000 appointment letters to newly inducted recruits, says the entire world is eager to partner with India in its growth journey

New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday distributed about 70,000 appointment letters to newly inducted recruits and said that today the entire world is eager to partner with India in its growth journey.

“Today, India is known for its political stability which means a lot in today’s world. Today, the Government of India is recognized as a decisive government. Today, the government is known for its progressive economic and social decisions,” he said.

Prime Minister Modi, who was addressing the National Rozgar Mela via video conferencing, said that Azadi Ka Amrit Kaal has only begun. “This is a very significant moment for those who are joining government service as they have the opportunity to contribute towards making India a developed country in the next 25 years,” he said.

The selected recruits from across the country will be joining the Government in various Departments including the Department of Financial Services, Department of Posts, Department of School Education, Department of Higher Education, Ministry of Defence, Department of Revenue, Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, Department of Atomic Energy, Ministry of Railways, Department of Audit and Accounts, Department of Atomic Energy and Ministry of Home Affairs, among others.

The Prime Minister said that the campaign to provide government jobs to the youth is unprecedented. Institutions like SSC, UPSC, and RRB are providing more jobs with new systems. These institutions are focussing on making the recruitment process simple, transparent and easy. They have reduced the time cycle of recruitment from 1-2 years to a few months, he said.

The Prime Minister highlighted that India is taking its economy to new heights as he pointed out the challenges of today including the economic recession, the global pandemic and the disruption in the supply chain due to the ongoing war. He gave examples of various multinationals making their way into India for manufacturing and the country’s growing foreign exchange reserve.

Modi explained that foreign investments made in the country give rise to production, expansion and setup of new industries, and boost exports, thereby giving a boost to employment opportunities at a very fast pace. Highlighting the policies of the present government that have created lakhs of employment opportunities in the private sector, the Prime Minister gave the example of the automobile sector which has contributed more than 6.5 per cent to the GDP of the country.

He informed that about four lakh crore rupees have been spent on Jal Jeevan Mission. From its inception when, on average, 15 out of 100 rural habitats had piped water, now the number has risen to 62 out of every 100 households. And the work is going on at a rapid pace. There are 130 districts with full coverage of piped water for every household. This is resulting in saving time and freedom from many waterborne diseases.

He also touched upon the online portal iGoT which recently crossed the one million mark in user base and urged them to take full advantage of the courses available on the online portal. “In the journey of the next 25 years of Amrit Kaal, let us together move forward towards realizing the vision of a developed India,” the Prime Minister concluded. /BI/
