The Congress on January 11 alleged that the country's "jobs famine" has worsened in the last ten years of Modi government and accused the Prime Minister of miserably failing to fulfil his promise of creating two crore jobs every year.
Congress general secretary Jairam Ramesh said India's youth deserve growth that delivers them good quality jobs not joblessness and 'pakora' shops.
“According to data from Centre for Monitoring Indian Economy, unemployment for youth aged 25-29 was the highest in almost four years, at 15.5% in December 2023,” he said.
