Session (2) (24th December, 2021)
As a keynote speaker, All India co-organizer of Swadeshi Jagran Manch, Sh. Satish Kumar, explained in detail about Swavalambi Bharat Abhiyan. He said that we have to make India self-reliant, that is why the name of this campaign has also been named Swavalambi Bharat Abhiyan. The campaign has three objectives - (1) to bring Bharat to zero BPL. (2) Full employment to youth (3) To make the country a 10 trillion economy while protecting the environment.
He informed that 1000 years ago Bharat wasagriculture based super economic power. At that time, India’s contribution to the world’s GDP used to be 32 percent. All the people of Bharat lived with employment and at that time no one had even heard the word of unemployment, but over time Bharat was ruled by invaders and the British, due to which it became backward in economic field and today unemployment is with us as a major problem to be sorted out.
Recognising our power and using demographic dividend which Bharat today enjoy, having the world’s largest youth population, we can again reach the pinnacle of a global economic superpower. For this, we have to focus on the following points:
(1) In India, only government jobs are considered as employment, which is wrong, the complete definition of employment include employment in all sectors. (2) The main reason for unemployment is to consider GDP as the base of the economy, therefore the budget should be employment based, not GDP based. (3) Every country should recognise its strength; Bharat’s largestyouth power is its strength. (4) Bharat has to encash its demographic dividend. (5) The government should go for free trade agreements thoughtfully and make only those agreements which are beneficial for the country. (6) Employment generation through decentralisation-district-centred economy. (7) Entrepreneurship is the only solution-it needs to be promoted. (8) Employment generation is a social and economic movement.
He said that job mentality stagnates the physical and intellectual level of a person while entrepreneurship makes a person more creative.
