AGARTALA, July 5 (TIWN): Unemployment rate is further increasing in state with more graduates and HS passed outs in this year. Centre For Monitoring Indian Economy Pvt. Ltd (CMIE) monthly report has once again topped Tripura with 22.8 %, which is not only highest in the country but also at least 6 % more than the second ranking state in unemployment Haryana 16.8 %. In the 3rd ranking it’s Jammu & Kashmir with 13.2 % whereas Himachal Pradesh comes with 11.8 % and Rajasthan with 10.1 %. Other states of India ranks below 9 % whereas Goa, Puducherry have no unemployment. This was the report of last 30 days according to CMIE. Tripura's top-ranking is however continuing from last few financial years. However, the ruling govt has alleged a total collapse of state economy in the last 20-30 years where govt job was kept as the single option for livelihood. In this situation, how far the new govt will be able to invite industrialists and manage foreign investments in state, it’s the most challenging job for the govt.

On yesterday huge numbers of youths over thousands, who are the victims of previous govt's wrong recruitment policy gathered to meet the Chief Minister in two places consequently and later few of them were arrested by police, but many of the youths were saying if their job recruitment is cancelled they will not get police constable’s job due to age-eligibility.

The gathering of the youths, frustration of the youths and protests are now the toughest job before Biplab Deb’s govt. Hence there is no option left before the Biplab Deb’s Govt rather than rapid economic development.

Moreover, with the increasing graduates years after years the unemployment tolls are raising further.
