In his address, Shri Amit Shah said that before the assembly elections in the state, Dr. Himanta Biswa Sarma had said that we should involve the youth of Assam in the development process of the state and we will give government jobs to 1 lakh local youth. Shri Shah said that under the leadership of Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi, the Assam government has given government jobs to about 86,000 youth in 2 years, and by giving 14,000 more jobs in the next few months it will fulfill its promise of providing 1 lakh government jobs in the state very soon.
The Union Home Minister and Minister of Cooperation said that the Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi is going to dedicate the newly constructed Parliament Building to the nation on May 28 and the opposition is doing petty politics by boycotting it. He said that the people of the whole country want that a new temple of democracy should be built for the creation of a new India and the discussions and deliberation on making democracy stronger should take place there. Shri Shah said that the people of the country have made Shri Narendra Modi the Prime Minister of the country two times with full majority, this kind of petty politics by opposition is an insult to the people’s mandate.
The Union Home Minister and Minister of Cooperation, earlier the youth of Assam used to have weapons in their hands, there were shutdowns and curfews for months, bomb blasts used to happen but Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi has heralded a new era of development. He said that the people of Assam want peace, development and association with India. Shri Shah said that earlier there were many hurdles in making 42,000 and now 45,000 government recruitments. There were rules under which recruitment could not be done with transparency, there was no board for recruitment. He said that with transparency and fairness, Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi has arranged for the children of the poor to get jobs, while the earlier governments gave jobs to their own people. He said that the government led by Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi has made such arrangements that talented youth from any region, caste and class of Assam get government jobs without any corruption. He said that providing government jobs to the youth on the basis of merit marks the end of nepotism. He said that Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi has started a new and transparent system in which talented people get jobs.
