INDIA E POST CHANDIGARH JULY 09, 2022

Haryana Government is constantly making efforts to provide maximum employment opportunities to the people of the state. For new recruitment, people can apply online through Haryana Kaushal Rozgar Nigam Limited which was earlier applied through outsourcing. 

While interacting with the media persons in Jind on Saturday, Haryana Deputy Chief Minister, Sh. Dushyant Chautala said that all the recruitments in the state are being made online by the state government. In addition to this, the practice of contract recruitment through outsourcing has ended.

He said that this would not only prevent exploitation of employees working on contract basis but would also ensure opportunities for the deserving candidates to avail adequate employment in a transparent manner. He said that Kaushal Rozgar Yojana is a wonderful scheme which has ended recruitment on DC rate through outsourcing. He said that some minor problems were faced in the beginning but job vacancies have been streamlined in the last eight months.

He said that with this development, job opportunities have been given to poor families on priority basis. Under the Kaushal Rozgar Yojana, the state government has worked to reappoint the already engaged employees instead of sacking them. The state government has implemented this scheme for jobs in every sector of all Departments. Apart from this, exemption has also been given to BPL families. So far, efforts have also been made for the recruitment of technical posts having salary of up to Rs 30,000, which will be filled in the coming time.

It is estimated that as per the population size of Haryana in the new delimitation, the number of Assembly Constituencies will be 126 and the number of Lok Sabha constituencies will be 14. 

The Chief Minister said that presently,  there are 90 MLAs in the Haryana Vidhan Sabha.  There is not enough space available in the existing building to even accommodate these 90 MLAs.  Not only this, but it is also not possible to expand this building, because it is a heritage building, added Sh.
