The Prime Minister, who laid the foundation stone and dedicated to the nation multiple projects worth more than Rs 29,400 crore in Mumbai, also took a veiled jibe at opposition parties who have been criticising the government over “unemployment” and said according to a recent RBI report on employment, around eight crore new jobs have been created in just three-four years.
Addressing the gathering, PM Modi emphasised the need for skilling youth and creating employment in the country.
“Skill development and employment in large numbers are India’s needs of the hour. Our government is continuously working in this direction. Despite a pandemic like COVID-19, record numbers of jobs have been created. According to a recent RBI report on employment, around 8 crore new jobs have been created in just three-four years,” he said.
