New Delhi. Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar has taken a big decision in the interest of women of the state. Women will be given 35 percent reservation in government jobs in the state. Only the native women of Bihar will get the benefit of reservation. The decision was approved in Nitish Kumar’s cabinet meeting. Earlier, the woman of any state could take advantage of the 35 percent reservation system for women in government jobs, but now it will not happen. Apart from this, it has also been decided to set up Bihar Youth Commission in the Nitish cabinet meeting.
Chief Minister Nitish Kumar wrote on his social media post, I am happy to stating that with the aim of providing maximum employment opportunities to the youth of Bihar, training and empowering them, the state government has decided to set up Bihar Youth Commission and today the cabinet has also approved the formation of Bihar Youth Commission. This commission will have an important role in advising the government on all matters related to improvement and upliftment in the condition of youth in the society. This commission will also coordinate with government departments to ensure better education and employment to the youth.
According to the CM, Bihar Youth Commission will have a chairman, two vice -chairman and seven members, whose maximum age limit will be 45 years. This commission will monitor that the local youth of the state get priority in private sector employment within the state, as well as the interests of the youth studying and working outside the state. It will also be an important task to prepare a program for prevention of alcohol and other drugs that promote social evils and send recommendation to the government in such cases. The purpose of this visionary initiative of the state government is to become young self -reliant, efficient and employment -oriented through this commission so that their future is secured.
