The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Tuesday hailed Prime Minister Narendra Modi's directive to various government departments and ministries to undertake recruitment of 10 lakh people in the next year and a half, even as the Opposition dubbed it as " jumle-baazi (rhetoric)" and reminded him that the promise was to provide two crore jobs every year.
The direction from PM Modi came following a review of the status of human resource in all government departments and ministries, the Prime Minister's Office (PMO) said.
Reacting to the announcement, BJP chief J.P. Nadda said, "We are grateful to our Hon. PM Shri @narendramodi for this new mission of recruiting 10 lakh people into different government departments and ministries in 1.5 years." "This shows our government's emphasis on job creation for our youth and focus on efficient management of workload," he said on Twitter.
