IYC observes PM Modi's birthday as 'unemployment day'
New Delhi, Sep 17: The Indian Youth Congress organised 'Berojgari Melas' across the country on Saturday to observe Prime Minister Narendra Modi's birthday as 'unemployment day', party officials said.
Holding placards, several party workers gathered at the IYC office here wearing black shirts and raised slogans.
PM Modi turned 72 on Saturday with politicians and dignitaries extending their best wishes to him.
Addressing party workers, IYC national president Srinivas BV said since the BJP government came to power, it brought the "gift of unemployment" for the youth of the country.
He said the country has a large population of youth of which 60 per cent are unemployed. "This is a very scary situation," Srinivas alleged.
He alleged that under the BJP government, the country is facing "economic slowdown" and the youth is "disappointed".
"Narendra Modi had promised to provide 2 crore jobs every year to the youth of the country. According to that, 16 crore youth should have been employed by now. The PM is least bothered about the employment of the youth. He is concerned about the employment of Amit Shah's son Jay Shah," he alleged.
The IYC urged the prime minister to pay attention to the unemployed youth and provide them jobs.
