Diwali is approaching and Prime Minister Narendra Modi has plans for the country. This Diwali, PM Modi has a special gift for the youth of India- 75,000 jobs. As the Centre continues to get targeted by the opposition parties for the rising unemployment rate and inflation, PM Modi will interact with the youngsters via video conferencing on Saturday and will hand over jobs to them.
As per the media reports, at least 75,000 job appointment letters will be handed over to the youngsters during the virtual event as PM Modi will address them. The job will be affiliated with various ministries and government departments.
