India has a huge population and there is a shortage of jobs. Rather than job seekers, India needs more job creators. This initiative will give people incentive to take up entrepreneurship.

There are lot of people who are simply overworked. We don't need more jobs, just good labor laws.

Unemployment is usually kept high by having some workers overworked. This keep labor costs low. Also increases the costs of things so that employment becomes necessary. Oldest trick in the BOOK.

There is no way that everyone in a country will be working. Governments can't ensure that everyone has a job. Government's job is to build the Infrastucture and providing basic services.

i completely agree with you. I know how much teachers are overworked for every public activity. elections to census etc..this initiative going to help huge for tatas/birlas/ambanis. India still need critical infrastructure, education, health, helping majority (60-70%) of the people to bring out of poverty by providing them to succeed in agriculture. why not india become the hub for food rather than killing the seed by giving away rights to foreign companies like monsanto! So unfortunate!
