Pointing out the discrepancy between the Centre and state data on the registered unemployed youth in Madhya Pradesh, the Opposition Congress in the state has accused the ruling BJP of hiding the data.
Leader of Opposition (LoP) in MP assembly Dr. Govind Singh said according to the economic survey, the state government mentioned that the number of registered unemployed is 30.23 lakh whereas, the Centre’s ashram portal put it at 1.30 crore.
Singh accused the Shivraj Singh Chouhan-led government of hiding the facts and presenting the “half-truth” before the Assembly. He said the government should present the details of the number of unemployed youth in the state on a white paper.

In the last 18 years, Shivraj Singh Chouhan has made several announcements for recruitment and filling the vacant posts in all departments of the state, however, it failed to fulfill its promises, he alleged.
“If the direct recruitment process remained canceled, many departments of the state government would be completely vacant. Because, employees are getting retired every year but new recruitment are not being done for the last several years,” Singh told IANS.
The leader of the opposition further claimed that in 2001, the number of permanent state government employees was 5.13 lakh, which dipped to 4.52 lakh in March 2018 and has now further come down to 4.37 lakh.
