Responding to Chief Minister Bhagwant Singh Mann's clarion call to stop the brain drain and turn the youth into job creators rather than job seekers, Punjab Govt has not just provided around fifty thousand regular jobs in the various departments of the state government but also walked an extra mile to make the state youth skillful, besides, helping them in starting their own ventures.
Underlining the two years and 9 months achievements of the state government, Punjab Employment Generation, Skill Development and Training Minister Aman Arora said that as many as 49,949 government jobs have been provided to the youth in the first 33 months of its tenure, which is a record in itself.
Apart from this, 2,65,430 candidates have also been provided assistance to get jobs in the private sector by organizing over 4,725 placement camps in the state.
