Vacant govt jobs: When will they be filled?
Narendra Modi government came into power assuring generation of two crore jobs. It has been more than four and a half years ever since, and even twenty lakh jobs were not generated in these many years, annually.
In an attempt to cover up for this lack, BJP president Amit Shah has vented ire on illegal immigrants. He says they are usurping the jobs meant for Indian youths. This is sheer illogical reasoning to pull the wool on the eyes of voters.
In the run up to 2019 elections, he has said all the illegal immigrants would be deported, and that the country was home to over 100 crore of them. That means, a hundred crore people would be sent out of the country if BJP comes to power again.
The government had drawn up a list of forty lakh people calling them illegal immigrants in Assam. Many of them were born and had even their many generations of ancestors living there, with them possessing all necessary documents such as Aadhar Card, Passport and bank accounts.
In the list, some members of families were termed illegal while the others were perfect citizens of the country. Hence if Modi comes to power again in 2019, the government may not even have to create jobs since 100 cr people would be pushed out of the country. Forget what happens in the future, why did the Modi government not create two crore jobs as promised prior to polls?
This government couldn’t create even ten lakh jobs annually. None of the promises have been fulfilled. Be it about black money, inflation, looters fleeing the country, mob lynching and in some cases, government encouraged communal clashes to cover for its lack of administration.
As per the recent reports, about 24 lakh jobs are lying vacant in various state governments. More than six lakh vacancies lie in police dept. Railway and Anganwadi vacancies run into few lakhs. Health and armed forces also have thousands of vacancies thus lagging the whole system down.
On the other hand, number of unemployed youths is increasing with every passing day. Even graduates want to be chaprasis if it’s a govt job. The government has turned a blind eye to all this.
The President of the ruling party talks about illegal immigrants to cover for everything that they failed at achieving. Our PM speaks about making India the global leader, and bhakts get delirious at it. The reality, however, is different.
There are hardly any teachers in the schools that prepare tomorrow’s citizens. Though there are lakhs of qualified people, they are not being recruited to fill vacancies. The government has put the whole country’s future in line to serve its ‘corporate’ friends.
Even the law and order situation is going from bad to worse. No recruitments are happening in police department either. The currently serving ones are managing more than their capability to deliver.
Postal department has more than fifty thousand vacancies and the people there are overworked. If someone asks about these numbers, the PM talks about becoming entrepreneurs by making pakodas. Union Minister Nitin Gadkari says govt cannot provide jobs.
Shah says immigrants took away all jobs. Sangh Parivar leaders advise hindu women to have more kids. But they have no answers as to who’d pay for their development and jobs for their livelihood.
At least now the govt has to wake up from its slumber and recruit people for jobs. Lok Sabha elections are coming close. Recruiting people in phases would do good to both the unemployed and government administration. Rajasthan and Chattisgarh polls are drawing close. The government should fill the vacancies at the earliest to better the functioning of the government machinery.

'Engineered narratives': West Bengal guv on alleged molestation charges against him
Kolkata, May 2: West Bengal Governor C V Ananda Bose on Thursday said he will not be cowed down by “engineered narratives” and the "truth shall triumph” after TMC leaders claimed that a woman working at Raj Bhavan levelled allegations of molestation against him.
In a statement, the Governor said, “Truth shall triumph. I refuse to be cowed down by engineered narratives. If anybody wants some election benefits by maligning me, God bless them. But they cannot stop my fight against corruption and violence in Bengal,”
To the Raj Bhavan staff "who expressed solidarity with him following some derogatory narratives that were circulated by two disgruntled employees as agents of political parties," a communication by Raj Bhawan said.
The Governor’s statement came after senior TMC leaders claimed this evening in a series of social media posts that the woman, who had levelled the allegations, has been taken to a police station to complain against Bose.
Though police sources said they received a verbal complaint, there was no official word on whether a formal complaint had been registered.
“BIG. Bengal governor CV Ananda Bose was accused of molesting a woman. How utterly appalling and Horrifying. Ahead of @narendramodi visit to Kolkata who is supposed to stay overnight at Raj Bhavan, a woman has alleged that she was molested while she went to meet the Governor at Raj Bhavan today. The complainant has been taken to the Hare Street police station for filing a complaint. The woman has accused the Governor of molesting her. Shocking and disgraceful,” TMC Rajya Sabha MP Sagarika Ghose said in a post on X.
Fellow TMC MP Saket Gokhale also posted on his X account regarding the issue.
West Bengal Women and Child Development Minister Shashi Panja said it is “shameful” that the Governor has maligned his post and has used it to “torture a woman”.
“It is appalling and shocking to see such an incident. This is the same Governor who had reached out to Sandeshkhali to talk about women’s rights and Nari Shakti. This is shameful that the Governor sought undue advantages in the pretext of giving her a permanent job. We want Prime Minister Narendra Modi who will be addressing rallies in Bengal tomorrow to react on this issue,” she said.
According to sources in the Governor's House, the "woman employee with the help of her alleged boyfriend who is also an employee of the Raj Bhavan was blocking complaints (from people) being sent to the Election Commission of India.
"When she was reprimanded for that, she went outside and alleged molestation. She is in the habit of throwing tantrums against her colleagues because of some disease," a Raj Bhavan official said.
The West Bengal Governor and the TMC government have shared an acrimonious relationship since he assumed office in November 2022 and had several run-ins on various issues.
The BJP said it has to be seen whether this a “conspiracy by the TMC” or has an “iota of truth in it”.
“We all know that the TMC is politically cornered on the issue of SSC scam and is looking for a breathing space. So this needs to be seen whether this is a conspiracy by the TMC or it has any iota of truth in it,” BJP leader Suvendu Adhikari said.

Shameful that a constitutional office holder should try to prejudice an impartial investigation by attacking the motive of the complainant. We have seen this happen in that infamous Saturday Hearing of the Supreme Court. Respect women! https://t.co/E6eJLQvFXO
