Raise voice against communalism and fight for jobs, youths told
Mangaluru: Communalism has endangered the peace, harmony, and unity of the coastal region. In a dire situation where unemployed youth are being misused for this communal agenda, young people must unite and strongly voice their demands for employment, education, and health, which are essential for a dignified life, said DYFI Karnataka state secretary Basavaraj Pujar.
He spoke at the inauguration of a two-day Dakshina Kannada district-level youth organisation workshop under the theme 'Create jobs, protect from unemployment, prioritise locals in employment', at Kalangann in the city on Sunday.
The Congress govt in Karnataka failed to curb communalism, which is disrupting the harmonious life of the coastal region's people. The public must defeat this vile politics that sacrifices common people for political gain through unity, he said.
The BJP govt at the Centre, which came to power with the promise of creating two crore jobs annually, betrayed the country's youth by not generating employment. There are about ten lakh vacancies in various central govt departments, including the military. Instead of filling these permanently, they are outsourcing work without providing any legal protection, security, or pension, deceiving people. The central govt is not taking any measures to address the growing unemployment problem.

Meanwhile, the state govt is not taking steps to fill over 2.5 lakh vacant positions, he said.
In one of the guarantee schemes, the Yuva Nidhi scheme, the state's youth are being deceived, he said. "It is unfair to consider only those who graduated or completed a diploma in the previous year as unemployed and offer them merely Rs 3,000 and Rs 1,500, respectively. The govt should provide a minimum monthly unemployment allowance of Rs 12,000 as compensation for its failure to provide jobs to unemployed youth," he demanded.
In the coming days, DYFI is planning a large-scale movement for the right to employment, and all youth should be prepared, he added.
