5 MILLION JOBS LOST DURING THE PERIOD 2004-2009.

A study by Assocham has concluded that about 5 millions jobs have been lost  in India during the five years from 2004-05 to 2009-10. The young and educated  are the new job seekers and ” they gave to be productively engaged to avoid socio-economic conflicts” Assocham stated. It added that job seekers increased by 2.23 per cent while jobs increased only 1.4 per cent. The government which claims that more jobs have been created, should rethink and plan for more jobs to engage the huge unemployed.
