News India Live, Digital Desk: This time there has been such a storm of promises in the election field of Bihar that even the youth have been confused. On one hand, Tejashwi Yadav is betting on 10 lakh government jobs, while on the other hand, Congress has directly… 25 lakh government jobs Has announced to give. 25 lakhs! This figure is so big that it sounds like an election slogan.

Only one question is echoing in people’s minds, on social media, and in tea shops – “Brother, how is this possible? Where will so many jobs come from? Is this just mere talk?”

Amidst all these questions and doubts, now the Congress Party itself has come forward and placed before the public the complete outline of its ambitious plan. He says that this will not happen by any magic wand, but there is a solid and grounded plan behind it.

So what is Congress’s ‘math’ of 25 lakh jobs?

Congress says that the biggest secret of this mission is the secrets of the government offices of Bihar. ‘Empty chairs’ is hidden in. The party has made it clear that it is not talking about creating 25 lakh ‘new’ posts. The first and biggest step of this mission is to fill lakhs of posts which are lying vacant for years and on which the present government has not made any recruitment.

According to Congress, the calculation is something like this:

  • 10-12 lakhs are already vacant: The party claims that currently 10 to 12 lakh posts are already sanctioned in different government departments of Bihar, but are lying vacant. These include:
    • Education Department: The posts of lakhs of teachers and professors are vacant.
    • Health Department: There is a huge shortage of doctors, nurses, and health workers.
    • Police Department: Thousands of posts are vacant in the police force as per the population.
    • Other Departments: From secretariat to panchayat, everywhere thousands of posts are waiting to be filled.

So where will the remaining 13 lakh jobs come from?

Congress says that these 10-12 lakh vacant posts will be filled in the first phase. left after this 13 to 15 lakh jobs New posts will be created and given. The party’s argument is that there are not enough government employees required to run a state with a large population like Bihar properly.

The party also says that for the last several years, the government has neither made old recruitments nor created new posts as per the need, due to which the youth of Bihar have to wander to other states for employment.

Now the people of Bihar will decide how hollow and how solid this promise is. But Congress has made it clear by presenting its entire account that ’employment’ is the biggest issue in this election.
