Prime Minister Narendra Modi Monday distributed appointment letters to over 71,000 newly inducted recruits in Government departments and organizations, saying the government is prioritising the full utilisation of India's youth talent through initiatives like Rozgar Melas.

He emphasised that his government was working in all the departments with the youth of the country as the focus point.

He said there is a campaign going on to provide government jobs in various ministries, departments and institutions of the country.

"Today also, more than 71,000 youths have been given appointment letters. In the last 1-1.5 years, almost 10 lakh youths have been given permanent government jobs by our government. This is a very big record in itself. In the tenure of any previous government, youths have not got permanent jobs in the Government of India in such a way in the mission board. But today, not only are lakhs of youths getting government jobs but these jobs are being given with complete honesty and transparency," he said.
