Priya Sethi slams Congress for misleading statement on unemployment 

Highlights Modi Govt’s initiatives for Youth Empowerment

Jammu 15Th Sep: National Executive Member BJP and former minister, Priya Sethi today strongly countered the misleading statement made by Congress regarding unemployment in Jammu and Kashmir, calling it a baseless political tactic to mislead the public.

 She asserted that under the visionary leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the government has launched several transformative initiatives to create job opportunities and empower the youth across the country, including Jammu and Kashmir.

While during Door to Door campaigning for BJP Candidate in Jammu the former minister strongly reacted to the Congress leader’s  false claims,

She further added that Congress couldn’t even release its manifesto till date so what J & K people can expect from a grand old party of India is a big question .

 Priya Sethi emphasized that the Modi government has taken unprecedented steps to ensure employment generation and skill development, giving young people more opportunities than ever before. 

“The Congress is trying to manipulate the narrative for political gains. Under PM Modi’s leadership, the youth have been at the center of every policy decision, whether it’s education, entrepreneurship, or employment. The launch of schemes like Make in India, Startup India, Skill India, and the Pradhan Mantri Mudra Yojana has empowered millions of young Indians to pursue their dreams and contribute to the nation’s growth,” Sethi said.

While campaigning Door to Door for BJP the former minister  was accompanied by Gopal Mahajan,Corporator Adarsh SC Gen Secy,Annu Gupta Dist Vice President,Savita Anand,Anuradha,Ram lubhaya and others.

Highlighting the strides made in Jammu and Kashmir post the abrogation of Article 370, Priya Sethi noted that new avenues for private and public investments have opened, driving growth in sectors like tourism, infrastructure, IT, and manufacturing. These developments have directly contributed to job creation in the Union Territory. She further added that the central government’s focus on local entrepreneurship through the Prime Minister Employment Generation Programme (PMEGP) has provided substantial support to the youth of J&K to start their own ventures.

“The Congress should introspect on its own record of unemployment during its decades in power. It is under the Modi government that we have witnessed rapid infrastructural development, increased tourism, and enhanced skill training programs, all contributing to job creation. It is ironic that the Congress, which ignored youth unemployment for years, is now attempting to mislead people,” former minister and senior BJP Leader added.

Priya Sethi reiterated that the BJP remains committed to addressing the aspirations of young people and ensuring that Jammu and Kashmir thrives with more opportunities for growth. She urged the Congress to stop playing politics over sensitive issues like unemployment and focus on constructive dialogue for the betterment of the region. 

She called on the youth of Jammu and Kashmir to avail themselves of the many opportunities presented by the central government, emphasizing that the Modi government’s comprehensive policies are creating a path for a brighter future. 

“From Digital India to Atmanirbhar Bharat, the Modi government’s initiatives are centered around empowering young Indians to be job creators, not just job seekers. The Congress should understand that the times have changed, and so has the approach to tackling unemployment,” Sethi added.
