EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITIES
ARUNACHAL PRADESH LAND OF THE RISING SUN
The state’s Chief Minister has assured the addition of 0.1 million jobs during the 12th Five Year Plan (2012-2017).
During the financial year 2015-16, creation of 12,300 job opportunities was targeted. However, nearly 15,000 youth were
employed during the year, exceeding the set target by a huge margin.
The Chief Minister's Skill Development Programme helped in improving employability of educated unemployed youth in the
state. Its main objective is to provide 100,000 jobs for unemployed youths during the 12th Five Year Plan. Under this
initiative, Job Mela-cum-Skill Development Interview Rally is being organised at regular intervals. Till May 2015, more than
61,500 youths have been employed or self employed.
Furthermore, the state Government has announced that a minimum of 10 per cent of the funds allocated to the MLA local
area development scheme will be used to train unemployed youths. This will help them acquire the necessary skills for
taking up self-employment activities or for enhancing their employability.
The decision of establishing a skill development centre in a phased manner in each and every district of the state was also
made in the budget of 2015-16. In addition to this, an employment opportunity, under the Arunachal Agriculture Employment
Generation Scheme, with an allocation of US$ 0.83 million would also be launched for the youth under the agriculture
sector.
Other schemes that have helped in employment generation include: National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (NREGA),
Prime Minister's Rozgar Yojana (PMRY), Rural Employment Generation Programme (REGP), Scheme for Working Women
