Kashmiri youths are getting jobs on the basis of merit and not on political consideration, says Amit Shah

Violent street protests and militancy have declined in Kashmir and youths are getting jobs on the basis of merit and not on political consideration, Union Home Minister Amit Shah said on January 25.

“Jobs in Jammu and Kashmir were being given with active support of political leaders but gone are the days when Ministers would give slips to give jobs to youth. Such slips have been replaced by exam papers today and recruitment is taking place in a transparent manner,” the Minister said.
