Jaipur, March 24 Former Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot and Leader of Opposition Tikaram Jully on Tuesday criticized the BJP-led state government for failing to fulfill its promise to conduct 10,000 recruitments in the education department.
Gehlot stated that despite its claims, the government has not issued any notifications or conducted any examinations regarding the recruitments.
"This is not only administrative negligence, but also direct injustice to lakhs of young people. The government is undermining the trust of young people by repeatedly changing recruitment schedules and failing to keep promises," he said.
Drawing a parallel between the approaches of the previous and current governments, Gehlot said that while the Congress government conducted recruitment processes in a transparent and time-bound manner, providing opportunities to young people, under the current government, unemployed youth are facing prolonged uncertainty and disappointment.
He asked the government when it would deliver the promised 10,000 jobs and how long the youth would have to wait.
Leader of Opposition Tikaram Jully alleged that the government publicized recruitment calendars through advertisements but failed to take any action on the ground.
"The reality of the BJP government – which had made big claims about 10,000 recruitments in the education department – is now evident. Neither has the recruitment begun nor have the exams been held," he said.
Calling it a betrayal of lakhs of youths, Jully said the announcements were merely to garner headlines, with no intention of making concrete progress.
He said that youths in Rajasthan are feeling disillusioned and confused, and asked the government to clarify when it would fulfill its promise.
