Various student organisations lauded the State government’s ‘Yuva Nidhi’ scheme to provide an unemployment allowance, but also demanded that the government extend the scheme for all unemployed youths.
Vasudeva Reddy, leader of the Students Federation of India (SFI), said, “Providing unemployment allowance was a decade-old demand of our organisation. ‘Either employment or unemployment allowance’ was our main agenda, and we successfully organised ‘Parliament Chalo’ many times in this regard.”
