Bihar Expands Job Targets Under Saat Nishchay-2 to 50 Lakh Employment Opportunities

Bihar is rapidly becoming the leader in providing employment. This has led to a rapid reduction in migration. Now in Bihar, the target of providing government jobs and employment under the Saat Nishchay-2 scheme has been increased to 12 lakh government jobs and 38 lakh other employment opportunities.

Earlier, CM Shri Nitish Kumar had set a target of providing 10 lakh government jobs and 10 lakh employment under this scheme, which he has now increased. Thus, a total of 50 lakh employment opportunities will be provided by next year.

In the past years, migration from Bihar to other states for employment has decreased rapidly. According to an estimate, till a few years ago, more than 5 crore people of Bihar used to migrate for employment.

But now this figure is decreasing. A large number of people are now returning to Bihar. Due to the continuous availability of new employment opportunities in Bihar, migration is decreasing.

It is worth noting that from 2020 till now, about 7.24 lakh people have got government jobs in Bihar. By giving so many government jobs in such a short time, Bihar has made its mark across the country. The situation is such that now thousands of youth from other states are doing government jobs in Bihar. Youth from all over the country are now looking towards Bihar for government jobs.

According to the data registered on the e-Shram portal, now 2.9 crore people have migrated to other states in search of employment.

During the Pragati Yatra, the Chief Minister of the state Nitish Kumar has approved about Rs 50 thousand crore for development works and infrastructure. Due to which more than 50 lakh jobs are said to be created.

The government is connecting the youth with employment through various schemes and projects. Which includes skill development training, expansion of industries and appointments in government services.

The state government is also providing financial assistance to connect the youth with employment. Various schemes are being run to make the youth of different sections of the society entrepreneurs. Today, the youth of Bihar are also rapidly making their mark in entrepreneurship. In recent years, the state government has taken several steps to create a favorable environment for industries in the state.

The government is also contributing to social development by involving more and more women in government services. Today, lakhs of women of the state are getting employment by joining Jeevika. Women are being given reservation in government jobs in the state. As a result of this, today Bihar has the highest number of women in the police.

The farmers of Bihar are becoming prosperous by taking advantage of many government schemes related to agriculture. Development in the field of agriculture has helped a lot in stopping migration.

Along with this, due to the rapid development of infrastructure in the state, crores of people are getting employment directly and indirectly in the manufacturing sector.
