This union budget has nothing for middle class people even service tax has been increase. All the things prices will go up. There is no tax lab changed. I hope the taxes that govt earned will honestly use in the infrastructure, development of the country and welfare of the people. So that after a year all people including middle class will feel Achchhe din Aa Age Hai. Right Now we are waiting and waiting for that.

Modiji Please start an Education Train who will run from Kashmir to Kanyakumari and Ita Nagar to Gujrat. The train must be for students/educators who are unable to afford a lot of money for learning/ sight seeing as well as know the culture of other Indian States. This will bring the people close to each other. In America there is a train California Jeffer who run thru desert /hill / rivers/ bay. This is an exciting trip to students/educators.

Existing employment agencies can be converted. Most of them already have infrastructure etc and have little work nowadays. People can register there for private jobs also just like jobs in Government. Liking of the employers to them concurrently can be done. sms can be sent for the suitable jobs with details etc for both employers and candidates. Fully computerizing the systems will remove any corruption etc.

Age relaxation is provided in huge numbers to reserved categories. There's a huge gap between unreserved & reserved categories on this point. deserving candidates from unreserved category suffers a lot because of this.

Age restrictions for deserving candidates should be given relaxations and should be open for unreserved category candidates also. Today relaxations are only for the reserved categories.

Today career centers and Job Boards / Job Agencies are targeting people with specified degrees from recognized colleges only. They should give importance to people who have served private organisations and earned a vast experience in subject matter should be given preferences.Age restrictions for deserving candidates should be given relaxations and should be open for unreserved category candidates also. Today relaxations are only for the reserved categories.

Sir, As the time of internet world has started so we should focus on long distance online free courses. There are very few options for online course and if they exist their fee is so high. We can learn a lot from a example of https://www.coursera.org/ this website is a working as a world platform to provide online education. Now we should also have such online platform to give formal education to our youth. #CareerCentre#MinistryofLabourandEmployment#NSC

Sir, Many of our Colleges remain closed on Saturday and Sunday. We can provide vocational education to our youth there. As colleges have already good infrastructure there will not be any need to build another infrastructure. #CareerCentre

Start in any existing building > Collect resumes > let SMEs, companies share list of requirement > Host interview camps every month > Employer selects suitable > people who fail 3-4 attempts offer training + counselling > Still few won't get Job > offer finance start some small shop > if further remains- leave them until they realize government cannot do every thing for their success, they need to put in their own

These would not be required if our education system is theory and career oriented like in American universities where they are trained practically. The inefficiency of one system is leading to the creation of an compensatory system that will lead to more urban chaos and confusion, Fix the root problem, dont make new patches that will within themselves have more chaos
