Raipur: A government that cares for its people should address the problems that touch on its citizens’ lives. This has been brought out in abstract form by the Chhattisgarh headed by Vishnu Deo Sai, which has given a new direction to the state by enunciating a revolutionary new idea with respect to equal opportunities to all zones of the society. Therefore, the government deserves a thumbs-up for extending the age limit of recruitment in the police department and other government jobs for the next 5-years to empower the youth of the state.
This decision has come as a relief for those candidates who were locked out of all government recruitment exercises because of their age. Since time immemorial there has been realization of unemployment not only in the state but across the country, and the talented and experienced candidates were denied their opportunities of getting employed mainly because of their age exceeding the required age bar. The government under Vishnu Deo Sai has perfectly understood this issue and given its solution anticipating thousands of people.
This age relaxation is crucial for those who have been affected by the COVID-19 pandemic in one way or another, which greatly reduced employment opportunities and froze recruitment. This time, most of the eligible candidates crossed the age barrier qualifying for government jobs. This 5-year break ensures these people another chance to achieve their dreams and find good jobs.
Self-employment is a great help for women who were unable to write civil service exams earlier because of household work or other social restraints. With this reform, they can now follow opportunities to exhibit themselves and participate in the labour force.
Furthermore, in areas such as policing, in which exertion of energy is essential and physical and mental qualifications are achieved, the act guarantees that deserving applicants in the health sector can compete. As this policy promotes the increased representation of economic and social minorities in the workforce, its goal is to increase the representation of economically and socially marginalized groups in the workforce and, hence, enhance greater societal cohesion.
