Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on Sunday said that the state government was running a big campaign under the Mission Rozgar through which more than two crore youth of the state will get jobs and employment in different sectors in the next three-four years.

Addressing the closing ceremony of the two-day ‘Lucknow Kaushal Mahotsav’ organised in collaboration with the National Skill Development Mission and the Government of Uttar Pradesh, CM Yogi said that the government has also started CM Apprenticeship Training with which seven and a half lakh youths of the state will be connected.

Under the Apprenticeship scheme, the government and the industry will each give half of the honorarium to the youth studying in universities and colleges, the CM said, adding that they will be connected with experiential work and new training.

“The presence of 112 companies in this festival proves that we have potential. The move to connect thousands of youth with jobs and employment is related to the campaign to link Uttar Pradesh’s scale with skill,” he remarked.

CM Yogi pointed out that Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s National Skill Development Mission has given a new identity, platform and flight to the aspirations of crores of youths of the country.

He said that within the last 6 years, the State Government has carried out skill development of 16 lakh youths through PM Skill Development Mission, Uttar Pradesh Skill Development Mission and Shram and Seva Yojana.

“Only a few days ago, our government entered into an agreement with Tata Technology to connect the youth of Uttar Pradesh with skill development. Through this, 35,000 youths will be given on-job and apprenticeship training,” he said.

He said that today the Government of India is taking forward the Farmer Producer Organization with new technology and seeds. Earlier, there was competition to produce more food and now for healthy competition in agriculture, the Government is promoting non-toxic farming.

CM Yogi said that when in 1965, a 17-year-old youth demonstrated a computer for the first time and discussed Artificial and Organic Intelligence, people wondered if that was possible at all and today innovations are happening in universities around the world regarding Artificial Intelligence.

Yogi said that the government is going to start One Family One ID card., through which mapping of every family of the state will be done. “With this, we will know with one click that which scheme and employment of the government has not been given to which family and it will be made available to them,” CM Yogi added further.
