The rationale behind the move is to present a timely picture of the job situation in the country.

According to a senior government official, the 'Prayas' portal — a website which contains data of all government schemes of different ministries — will start publishing real-time employment data, an outcome of schemes and projects by creating synergies across ministries/departments.

"We're currently working on consolidating the employment related data across ministries to capture job generation through various schemes at one place," an official said.
