DW BUREAU / Chandigarh Haryana Chief Minister, Sh. Manohar Lal said that radical changes have been brought to give a new identity to Haryana as compared to what it was before 2014. During the tenure of the present state government, more than one lakh regular government jobs have been given with complete transparency and on a merit basis only, ending the age-old Parchi Kharchi system. During previous government regimes, Leaders used to send the list of their dear ones' to HSSC and HPSC for unfair selections, said Sh. Manohar Lal while addressing the gathering at Samman Samaroh organized by Kala Shiksha Sahayak Sangh in association with Bharatiya Mazdoor Sangh held at Karnal today. This felicitation ceremony was organized by the Kala Shiksha Sahayak Sangh to express gratitude to Chief Minister for giving them employment opportunities through Haryana Kaushal Rozgar Nigam (HKRNL). The Chief Minister clarified that the State Government endeavours to give maximum employment to the needy through HKRNL. He said that Nigam was set up to end the economic exploitation of the youth. This is a significant step towards ending the recruitment done through contractual system, said the Chief Minister. He said that till now the data of more than 90,000 employees have been ported into the Nigam. These employees were engaged through outsourcing agencies in various departments, boards, and corporations said Sh. Manohar Lal. He informed that two days back, through the Nigam, appointment letters have been given to 2075 TGT and PGT teachers with just one click. The Chief Minister said that the Congress has played with the future of 9870 JBT teachers by not giving them jobs. "Securing their futures, we have given employment to 9670 teachers and the remaining 200 will also be given the same in the next two-three days," said Sh. Manohar Lal. He said that for the recruitment of Group C and D posts, the process of holding interviews has been completely ended and provision has been made for the written examination. "Now for Group C and D posts, recruitments are being done by conducting a written examination of 90 marks. While maximum 10 marks have been fixed for experience and socio-economic parameters," informed Sh. Manohar Lal. The Chief Minister informed that complete transparency is being ensured in police recruitment. The candidate having no family member in government job will also get 5 marks extra, so that even poor family can get the benefit of a government job, he added. Sh. Manohar Lal said that for the bright future of the youth, arrangements have also been made by the state government to provide skill training to employ them abroad as well. Under this scheme, a target has been set to send 1 lakh youth abroad in a year. He said that the government will encourage youths who want to set up their business and will also provide employment opportunities in private industrial units. The Chief Minister said that the Common Eligibility Test has recently been conducted by the state government for the recruitment of Group C post, in which about 11 lakh youths had applied, out of which about 6.5 lakh youths appeared in the examination. The validity of CET will remain for the next three years. (editor@dailyworld.in)
