Saksham Yuva Scheme raises problems among Haryanvi youths

There are many of qualified youth in the Haryana state who are capable of working in various departments with respect to their skills. They are suffering from unemployment. In the last assembly elections, on the behalf of BJP team, citizens of Haryana were promised to give 2 lakh permanent jobs. For this they initiated a scheme called “Saksham”, in which the employment would be given to undergraduates and graduates on Rs. 7500 and post graduates on Rs. 9000 / – along with allowance every month. It is a matter of great regret that even after 4 years, the BJP government has not fulfilled its election promises. By creating various policies like Saksham in the name of employment in the state, the youths are being deprived of permanent employment. The scheme gives job but it is temporary. Add to that, youths have also been exploited cheaply on the name of the “Saksham” scheme. It is extremely objectionable that youths are being made a tool of exploitation in all respects. On the name of employment, this mess should be closed.

Thousands of posts are vacant in different government departments of the state and millions of posts can be created in the proportion to the population said the youths of the state. Hence the exhausted youth appeals to the government to make permanent recruitment as soon as possible by creating vacant postings and new posts and recruit these youths.

1. Removal of the terms of the time period paired with the Saksham plan i.e. Saksham workers should be given continuity and service security. Those who have been removed for some reason should be taken back to work. Do not change the department frequently.
