Abstract

Today India is reflected as one of important rising economics in the global world. We have an impressive growth rate. The literacy rate is also increased remarkably. But our employment condition remains poor. Educated unemployment situation dominate the roots of sustainable development. We are experiencing inadequate employment opportunities last one and half decades. The critical problem is now creation of productive employment. Employment generation may tackle the problem like poverty and unequal distribution of wealth. It will also strengthen our market economy. In recent days inclusive growth have emerged as an important public policy for national developmental agenda. Employment is an important source of economic security and inclusive growth. Now it is a great challenge to achieve inclusion in social development. Our numbers of working poor are engaged in unorganised sectors. So it needs a serious attention. Appropriate policies and skill development will lead a step towards solving the unemployment issue.
