The educated unemployed in this country are estimated to be 40 million as per the statistics taken in 2000. The educated unemployed youth, if not properly admitted to jobs, get frustrated in life. In their frustrated mood, they fall prey to anti-social elements who whip up their frustration against society. We find most of the outlaws, militants and nasalizes are produced from amongst the educated unemployed youth. They go hand in glove with the miscreants in society and do all sorts of violent and turbulent acts of terrorism under the cover of liberation movement in their misguided enthusiasm and becomes the enemies of the society. These misguided unemployed youth are called 'militants' and 'terrorists' in various parts of the country. We have to take immediate and effective steps to wipe off unemployment, especially among the educated masses. It is time that all politicians cutting across party lines evolved emergent steps to work out for the red ressal of the unemployed, failing which people will lose their faith in the democratic system. It is, of course, a sorry state of affairs that there is no specific allocation or scheme for the educated unemployed in the annual budget presented by the finance minister. The government should start setting up more medical and engineering colleges as well as Joboriented industrial outlets in rural districts. Social service activities can provide good job opportunities. For this purpose huge funds are not required. The opening of children's nureseries, medical and nursing facilities in every village and Urban locality would almost offer more than five lakh jobs. Youth force is a timely need of our country since the future of this great nation is to be handled by this generation. It is suggested.
