Haryana Finance Minister, Capt Abhimanyu on Thursday said the State Government has dedicated Haryana’s golden jubilee year to youth, defence personnel and beneficiaries of social security pensions.
During this year, the main focus of the Finance Department would also be providing maximum employment opportunities to the youth, said the Minister.
He said that in November 2016, the Department has received proposal for filling up about 2,000 posts, which would soon be approved, whereas in October 2016, approval was given to fill up 2517 posts.
Apart from this, the Department had given approval to fill up vacant posts in various departments through walk-in-interviews, said he.
Capt Abhimanyu said that approval was given to fill up a number of posts in different Departments. These included 1,581 posts in Home, 395 posts in Revenue, 381 posts in Industrial Training, 14 in Health, 38 in Sports and Youth Affairs, five in Transport, 67 in Technical Education and 36 posts in Medical Education Department.
The Finance Minister said that under the outsourcing policy, the departments can recruit people for one year, for which they need no approval from the Finance Department.
The initiative has been taken to provide employment in private sector as well, he added.
Capt Abhimanyu said, “Efforts are being made to implement the Memoranda of Understanding signed during the ‘Happening Haryana Global Investor Summit’, which would also generate employment opportunities for youth and strengthen the financial and industrial economy of the State.
Taking further the Skill Development Mission, the State Government has given approval for establishing Haryana Skill Development University named after
