At a time when the economy is reeling under increasing unemployment and price rise, the state of Madhya Pradesh is successfully walking against the flow.
In a survey carried out by the Centre for Monitoring Indian Economy (CMIE), it has been found out that the Congress-ruled Madhya Pradesh has witnessed a sharp decline in unemployment in the last nine months.
CMIE has stated that unemployment, which was at its peak of 7% in 2018, dropped to 4.2% by the end of September this year. On the other hand, the country saw a rise in the unemployment rate which climbed to 8.1% by October, according to the CMIE data.
“Increased employment in MP; The Kamal Nath Government defeated unemployment: The Kamal Nath Government has managed to reduce the unemployment rate by 40% in its short tenure of 10 months. —The unemployment rate which was 7% in the year 2018 is now 4.2%. —This is the result of Kamal Nath’s efficient leadership,” MP Congress tweeted on Monday.

For the period from January to 2019 to August 2019, the report said, “Unemployment rate went up from 4.76% in January to 6.47% in February 2019, but declined in August to 5.50%.”
“This is a great achievement by the Madhya Pradesh government. The Centre must learn from the state. We have not only focused on self-enterprise but, also on skill development, which is showing good results. Chief minister Kamal Nath has stressed on job creation at all business events, including the recently-concluded Magnificent MP investors’ summit in Indore. We will continue to encourage the youth to go for self-employment and industrialists for maximum job creation,” The Times of India quoted Labour Minister Mahendra Singh Sisodia as saying.
