Patna (Bihar) [India], October 1 : Bihar Deputy Chief Minister Tejashwi Yadav on Sunday inaugurated a badminton court in Patna and said that it will give new opportunities to the talented youth of Bihar.
"We are of a new mindset. We have given the facilities and infrastructure to the talented youth of the state. This will give them a lot of opportunities," Deputy CM Yadav said.
"In today's time, exercise is very necessary. Apart from playing games on mobile phones, people should also do outdoor activities. The poor people do not have any space to play, this court will provide them an opportunity. Talent can come from anywhere," Yadav added.
He further said that a discussion should be held on the topic of job opportunities being provided to the people of Bihar under the leadership of Bihar CM Nitish Kumar.
"Under the leadership of CM Nitish Kumar, a lot of government job opportunities are being given to the people of the state. No other state government have provided these many job opportunities to the people till now, so discussions should be held on that," he said.
Earlier in August, Tejashwi Yadav said that his state has become a model for government jobs as no state has announced vacancies like the Nitish Kumar government.
In an exclusive interview with ANI, Bihar Deputy CM, while talking about job opportunities in the state, said that his government will give 10 lakh government jobs in the coming time during this tenure.
“In 2020, our main agenda was unemployment and we said that 10 lakh people will get government jobs. We have been announcing vacancies since our government was formed. We have announced around 5 lakh government jobs in the state. Earlier, 70,000 policemen joined the force. Recently, 1,75,000 jobs were announced for teachers,” he said.
Yadav further said that the state government is also planning to announce policies for public health that would create around 1.4 to 1.5 lakh jobs in the sector.
“After a few days, we are going to bring public health ... policy, after which around 1.4 to 1.5 lakh jobs in health sector would be announced... Bihar has become a model for government jobs. PM started distributing appointment letters after us. The good thing is that the agenda we came up with, is being discussed today. We will give 10 lakh government jobs in the coming time during this tenure... No state has announced jobs in such huge numbers,” he added.
