Why 2.8 Crore Indians Applied for 90,000 Jobs in Indian Railways

Today youth mostly unemployment and private sector has huge workload. so that why youth try to get job in government jobs www.hugejobs.in

Actually I need to know what is base of information on this Articles, as per market there has mostly unemployment and some employment happens but most of the corporate company they tried to avoid this, so only govt job having this factors. and else visit another govt site for searching and updating govt job alert now visit Indian Government Jobs its must be helpful for us quickly visit on this site and get more alert.

I am following your articles. When i See population as a whole i find there are people who do not work even for an hour per day. Another group called as beggars do work for 4 to 8 hours a day sometimes 12 hours a day, should i call it fruitful working, giving something to the society. similarly part of the group of SADHUS, thieves, smugglers, etc etc.
Even those who are working do they work and exert to their full capacity.
Does our politicians justify their work for the society.
I have raised this point only for one's thinking.
I will like to comment on Nalin Khanna's view- Employing in govt service one will be secured to get money without working for the employer, employer also do not want to bother to ask for work. I will put these nonworking employee as useless part of the population.

Vivek Kaul is excellent at crying hoarse about India's job crisis while offering no solution to resolve it. He is a doomsday prophet where nothing good ever happens in India, certainly not under the Modi regime.

The reason why people stampede to somehow secure any Government job is not just the very high salaries given to lower level staff (Grade 4 and 3) where qualifications are not as important as caste ! These jobs are 1000% secure with solid trade union protection that enables such employees to shirk work, face absolutely no penalty for being utterly callous in dealing with the public and where "performance" is a sick joke. Not to speak of guaranteed yearly increments, generous medical and retirement benefits and a further bonanza from 10 year Pay Commission mandated across the board elevation of salary scales of all Grades.

Government salaries deliberately ignore demand supply realities. The private sector is conscious of this reality and pays salaries only according to what the market demand is for a particular skill no more no less. And it cannot guarantee cast iron job security, particularly when the private company can go under for any number of reasons. Adding to the agony of the private sector, those which employ more than 100 or 300 workers (depending on the State where the company operates) cannot lay off workers in bad times as Government permission is required for such closure / layoff, which is seldom given. In fact State Governments clearly state that companies cannot claim losses as the reason for such closure / layoffs !!

Vivek Kaul should comment on these realities rather than merely pontificate about India's joblessness.

"Modi government is not worrying about this huge issue." and why should it? after all it is winning elections...

The lure of government service is very large. There are inherent advantages of a Government job as the employees need not work and from day one they start earning pension and if they are asked to do some work they can get extra money from the beneficiaries. If the Railways was a private company maybe so many would not have applied.
As an Indian we want to get every thing including salary without working for it. The burden has to be borne by others. This mindset starts from the highest office in India, the Parliament, the Courts etc who get generous salaries for not working and even more generous pensions for having not worked earlier.

Can you get me also a government job. I am expert in not working now after having slogged for the last 34 years in private service. My age is 58 yrs and am very suitable to do the jobs that the Government employees do.

Hi,
Since the Labour Bureau carried out six household-based Annual Employment-Unemployment Surveys (EUS) between 2010 and 2016; it would be more appropriate to declare the results of the sixth survey at the earliest. It is always better to use such tools and methods to keep improving overall Job Scenario in India.

I personally have seen substantial scenarios where some industries have reduced no. of positions at Senior level due to reduction in operating profit margins, since it was becoming difficult for them to remain profitable with large work force. I am not only talking about IT industry where employment has reduced but also telecom and banking sector.

There are implementations of Robotic Automation which can make certain mundane jobs redundant and companies can not always re-use those people some where else. Though this percentage is less, but I can also see that no. of self employed people is going up steadily since there are much less jobs.

Some of my close friends were struggling here and they have shifted to Western countries and Middle East in past one-two years not just for better salary but to ensure that they can work little longer than here (Say till age of 58-60 which is normal retirement age here but mostly senior people are told to retire early now-a-days). So one can imagine that scenario is very challenging.

Many industries are now looking for new technologies and new start ups are opening in few sectors. This need to be done on large scale to give opportunities to young and senior people both, and things might improve over a long period of time. Government is also probably putting their efforts and I am sure that, they will accelerate these initiative on large scale in next 10-15 years.

And Vivek,

Since you are so critical of the Narendra Modi Govt., I have a Question for you:

- Why have you not joined the Government and helped them shape the proper policies?

Critic outside of the Govt., is, "Good". "Needed". "Required". "Need of the Hour!"

Have you asked yourself the simple question - "Can I make a difference Inside rather than SHOUTING Outside?

If so, what was the result? Did they reject your job application?

If so, I ask Narendra, to reconsider - take in Kaul and let him help.

If otherwise, why am I paying to listen to you?

Any idea when was it last that such a large number of vacancies sought to be filled by the Railways any Government organisation? Was situation any better then?Would appreciate a response.

I do not believe your article. The reason I say this is because our company is on the BPO - non- voice Space and we are finding very few takers for clerical/computer operators jobs that we are offering in the Dehradun region. The jobs are standard working hours with all employee benefits (e ESI, P.F, Bonus, Leave etc). But there are no takers in the Dehradun region despite a large a %age of population being in the 20-28 years age bracket. Where is the Unemployment ? I dont see it on the ground.
