NEW DELHI, Dec 9:
Communist Party of India (Marxist) General Secretary Sitaram Yechury blamed India’s low level of employment on the Modi Government, which was deflecting the issue by raising the mandir-masjid issue.
Referring to the unsatisfactory rate of jobs created vis-a-vis demands for employment in India, Mr Yechury tweeted: ”It is this colossal failure of his Government, that Modi and his party try to hide with talk of mandir and masjid. Indian youth need jobs. Not hate rhetoric. Promise: 10 cr new Jobs. Reality: Jobs lost.” #Jobless
He posted a graphic ranking India’s unemployment rate among Asian countries at 8 per cent — much higher than even Philippines at 5.6 per cent and Indonesia at 5.5 per cent while China reported 4.0 per cent joblessness.
Asian countries South Korea, Japan, Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand fared better with even lower levels of joblessness. (UNI)
