Uttar Pradesh elections: The crushing pain of India’s job seekers (8:16)
Uttar Pradesh is a state in northern India. It is the most populated state in India with a population of over 200 million, which also is more populous than any other subdivision in the world. It is known for the Taj Mahal and a few other world heritage sites. The services sector is the largest industry in the state, including travel, tourism, hotel, real estate, and insurance. Also, the agriculture industry employs the most workers in the state. However, Uttar Pradesh now has the highest youth unemployment in India. Young people are frustrated over a lack of jobs. As of December last year, only 12 million of the state’s 70 million youth had a job. So, many of those unemployed students are left no choice but to look for government jobs or move to other states, but no students want to work in farming because it provides enough income only for living but not enough for their future family. In any case, the odds to get a job seem very slim.
