Unemployment has always been a challenge. The crisis is also becoming more serious because our socio-cultural fabric is getting torn apart due to this problem. Its challenges, with its involvement in political profit and loss, market mathematics and family implications, now want to lead not only India, but the whole world towards a terrifying future. The more efficient the countries are in stopping it in time, the easier and more natural the social and political problems will be, and the more comfortable, energetic the cultural environment will be in their respective people’s lives. In a democratic system, as insurmountable as these problems are for both the state and society, it is becoming more important to solve them in time.
There are forty seven million people in the world who either do not have work or are not getting the work they want or are not being paid enough. In the global circumference, the area of our country is 2.4 percent and the population is 16.7 percent. If we think about the deserving population for employment, then a large part of the below poverty line is living by begging. The grammar of begging has degenerated to such an extent that in the midst of the challenges of child labor, large numbers of school-going children have been forced into this forbidden profession by forming gangs.
It is noteworthy that out of about twenty crore twenty crore Indian children, about 15 crore are child labourers. It may disturb anyone that out of more than six crore children in the country, many lakhs have been doomed to be domestic servants.
When the present has become so frightening for the innocent world, then it should be known how the unexpected devastation of the epidemic has caused the dreadful truth of nearly 200 million people to become unemployed and more than 100 million workers to become poorer by this year. brought to the fore. These figures are not estimates, but have been expressed in a recent United Nations report. How many factors have been included in this analysis today? For example, claims of full-time employment, job vacancies, retirement and labor force participation, population, productivity and minimum wages, conditions of nation-building in terms of wage growth, etc. This horror in the pandemic can cause serious damage not only to India, but to the entire global economy and world society in many ways.
The Center for Monitoring Indian Economy (CMIE) report says that the total unemployment of our country has reached 7.31 percent (urban 7.9 percent and rural seven percent) by 31 December 2021. Meanwhile, Haryana was the worst hit by unemployment (34.1 per cent), with Rajasthan second and Jharkhand third. This horror of unemployment is shaking more than a third of the country’s population doing jobs or staring at jobs. It cannot even be imagined how deep this bite inflicts in our social environment. And when the population is thumping wildly, it is not an easy question even for the state.
No matter how policy-makers, socio-analysts underline this situation, it is quite natural that the bitterness in the society in politics or in our cultural landscape will increase in proportion to the growth of population. Social taboos to stop population growth, ludicrous irony of family life not only stop the way, the state also has limited resources and the needs are immeasurable. What to do in such a situation, crores of youth coming out of schools, colleges, training institutes, universities every year are not getting any way.
The urban jobless rate of 10.3 percent for youth and 11.8 percent for women has also sharply outperformed, according to the National Statistical Office’s (NSO) labor force survey figures. Employment growth is said to be insufficient until at least 2023. It has been warned that in the absence of concerted policy efforts, the social and employment scenario will be dire for many years to come, which has been outlined at 23 million for this year.
So far, where crores of people of the country have lost their jobs, today the demand for workers is much higher than before the pandemic, the pace of loss of jobs may be even a little sluggish. Today, when the income of fifty-five percent of the people has been discounted, more than ninety percent of the people have suffered a setback and only three percent of the people have become prosperous, it is noteworthy that the unorganized sector may be more suitable for this than the jobs required in the organized sector. Is.
The challenge of not having or not getting employment is giving air to various types of misfortunes from within. The child has to be sent to school, there is no money, the daughter has to be sent off, there is no money, medicine is to be treated, there is no money! Then what to do? Imagine how dark it is in front of the whole house! That’s why this bite is very deep. Then, how can this bite allow our entire social, cultural environment to live in peace. It was not in the morning that people run in lakhs to the cheap government ration shops. In the house, for every spoonful of oil-sugar, a cup full of rice-lentils, even one and a half kilos of potatoes, the kitchen runs to cut and eat the women. This is the same bite, which keeps churning every house in eighty percent of the country’s population, round the clock.
Meanwhile, some people are not deterred from saying that increasing unemployment reduces poverty. How? In response, their quirks, all sorts of incoherent things, push them into further confusion. It is said that poverty and unemployment are due to the above, and the time for the daughter’s farewell is written in the destiny before birth. Then, what can the poor family do for the daughters of poor families! After thinking properly, it comes to know that even such ideological poverty is nurtured by unemployment, loosening the screws of elders.
Since, since the age of ‘Sabke Daata Ram’, such things are getting mixed in the public life as well that ‘all are slaves of money, do salute to it’. Keep money in the temple, God will be happy. And if there is no money, then what? With all these ill-thought-out truths, the curse of unemployment flourishes, and all kinds of misdeeds, for their own reasons and various conclusions, dance in ever-new figures.
Due to unemployment, various types of crimes take their roots deep in the country and the world. Substantial possibilities of both drug trade and drug-de-addiction campaign get their own direction and even in this destructive grip, crores of youth and unemployed are getting destroyed. Think from the social and cultural point of view, what kind of solution is this, why only the youth and unemployed are the most targeted?
