After presenting the job offers to about 250 people at an event in Chennai, Sitharaman said the Rozgar Mela is a step towards the fulfillment of the Prime Minister’s commitment to accord the highest priority to employment generation.
The Union Minister presented the appointment orders to the new recruits from various ministries and departments including the Department of Posts, railways, health and family welfare, petroleum, and defence.
“Take the benefits of the (Rozgar Mela scheme) to everyone outside your family and tell them to scale up in their life…,” Sitharaman said during her brief interaction with some of the new recruits.
