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.

Strict security measures in place in Mumbai for Messi's events at 2 venues Dec 14, say police
Mumbai (PTI): In view of Argentine superstar footballer Lionel Messi's visit to Mumbai on Sunday, the city police are implementing stringent security measures, like not allowing water bottles, metals, coins inside the stadiums and setting up watchtowers to keep an eye on the crowd, officials said.
The police also said taking extra care to avoid any stampede-like situation and to prevent recurrence of the chaotic situation that unfolded in Kolkata during Messi's visit on Saturday as thousands of fans protested inside the Salt Lake stadium here after failing to catch a clear glimpse of the football icon despite paying hefty sums for tickets.
Messi is expected to be present at the Cricket Club of India (Brabourne Stadium) in Mumbai on Sunday for a Padel GOAT Cup event followed by attending a celebrity football match. He is expected to proceed to the Wankhede Stadium for the GOAT India Tour main event around 5 pm.
"In view of Lionel Messi's visit to Mumbai, the police are geared up and have put in place a high level of security arrangements in and around the stadiums located in south Mumbai. Considering the chaos that prevailed in Kolkata and the security breach, we have deployed World Cup-level security arrangements at Brabourne and Wankhede stadiums," an official said.
Expecting heavy crowd near the stadiums during Messi's visit, the city police force has deployed more than 2,000 of its personnel near and around both the venues, he said.
As the Mumbai police have the experience of security 'bandobast' during the victory parade of ICC World Cup-winning Indian team and World Cup final match at the Wankhede Stadium, in which over one lakh cricket fans had gathered, we are prepared to handle a large crowd of fans, he said.
"We are trying to avoid the errors that occurred in the past," the official said.
There is no place to sneak inside the stadiums in Mumbai like the Kolkata stadium, according to him.
The police are also asking the organisers to provide all the required facilities to the fans inside the stadium, so that there will be no chaos, he said, adding the spectators have purchased tickets in the range of Rs 5,000 to 25,000. After paying so much of amount, any spectator expects proper services, while enjoying the event, he said.
The police are expecting 33,000 spectators at the Wankhede Stadium and over 4,000 at Brabourne Stadium. Besides this, more than 30,000 people are expected outside and around the stadiums just to have a glimpse of the football sensation, he said.
The organisers responsible for Messi's India visit recently came to Mumbai to discuss security arrangements. During the meeting, the Mumbai police asked them not to take the event lightly, according to the official.
After those requirements were fulfilled, the final security deployment was chalked out, he said.
Police has the standard procedure of the security arrangements inside the Wankhede Stadium, where people are barred from taking water bottles, metals objects, coins. Police are setting up watch towers near the stadiums and there will be traffic diversions, so that there is maximum space available to stand, according to the official.
Police are also appealing to the spectators to use public transport service for commuting and avoid personal vehicles to reach south Mumbai.
To avoid any stampede-like situation, police are also taking precautionary measures and will stop the fans some distance ahead of the stadium and public announcement systems will be used to guide the crowd. Barricades will be placed at various places to manage the crowd.
In case the crowd swells up beyond expectation, the police will divert people to other grounds and preparations in this regard underway, he said.
Additional police force has been deployed in south Mumbai to tackle any kind of situation, he said.
