Young Buzz: No Mahakumbh of jobs!

There were great expectations that Kumbh would create ample job opportunities for one and all, for youth in particular. However, majority of youngsters feel that Kumbh has let them down in this regard. Karuna Verma engages some youth as they speak their mind on the issue

Early birds benefited

Of course, Kumbh has created job opportunities. Various departments have recruited candidates during Kumbh. In fact, a couple of friends have been selected for the posts like accountant and electrician. Those who were early birds have managed to get a job.

Temporary employment

True, there are jobs during Kumbh but only for some categories. There is no taker for medical students or other such professionals. Besides that these jobs are on ad hoc basis and most of these are not well paid jobs.

Only for unskilled

Kumbh has brought jobs for youth. But most of these jobs have been for unskilled labour. People with domain expertise have not recruited. Youth are still looking for other options as Kumbh has not been able to offer them a job opportunity.

Lack of ads
Kumbh has done nothing for youth. It is only about people and more crowd. Also, recruitment for Kumbh hasn’t been done through proper channel and hardly any recruitment advertisement was carried anywhere.

Professional unwanted

Qualified professionals have not absorbed at all. Kumbh recruitment has been done at lower grade level. Also, these jobs lack security. Nevertheless, if you have managed to get a job during Kumbh then it would make your resume look more impressive.
