High growth achieved by India notpossible without job creation Kant

PTI April 17 2019

New Delhi Apr 17 (PTI) Niti Aayog CEO Amitabh Kant Wednesday said India

has been growing at more than 7 per cent rate and this could not have been

achieved without adequate job creation

Speaking on the sidelines of a PHD Chambers of Commerce event Kant said

that when non-NDA ruled states like Karnataka and West Bengal are claiming

that jobs are being created then it was not possible that at all India level

employment is not being generated

How is it possible that we are having 75 per cent growth and jobs are not

being created It is not possible

If West Bengal and Karnataka are saying that jobs have been created in

their respective states then how it is possible that at the national level there is

no employment generation he pointed out

Recently Finance Minister Arun Jaitley had also stoutly defended the growth

data saying an economy cannot be growing at 7-8 per cent without creating

jobs

He had also stated that no major social agitation indicates it hasnt been

jobless growth

Kants statement comes against the backdrop of a report by Azim Premji

University suggesting that employment opportunities declined and 5 million

men lost their jobs between 2016 and 2018

The decline in job opportunities coincided with demonetisation in

November 2016 although no direct causal relationship can be established

based only on these trends the State of Working India-2019 (SWI) report said

According to a leaked National Sample Survey Offices (NSSOs) periodic

labour force survey (PLFS) report Indias unemployment rate had hit a 45-year

high of 61 per cent in 2017-18

Former RBI governor Raghuram Rajan had recently expressed doubts over

Indian economy growing at 7 per cent when not enough jobs were being

created and had said the current cloud over the GDP numbers must be cleared

by appointing an impartial body to look at the data

Kant said that India needs to accelerate its growth rate from 7 per cent to 10

per cent

He said India in the next three years will be amongst the top 25 countries in

the ease of doing business ranking of the World Bank

Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (IBC) Goods and Services Tax (GST) and

RERA were major reforms undertaken by the Modi government Kant said

adding that real impact of these reforms will start reflecting in next two

years

High growth achieved by India not possiblewithout job creation KantWed 17 Apr 2019-900 pm

Niti Aayog CEO Amitabh Kant Wednesday said India has been growing at

more than 7 per cent rate and this could not have been achieved without

adequate job creation

Speaking on the sidelines of a PHD Chambers of Commerce event Kant

said that when non-NDA ruled states like Karnataka and West Bengal are

claiming that jobs are being created then it was not possible that at all

India level employment is not being generated

How is it possible that we are having 75 per cent growth and jobs are not

being created It is not possible

If West Bengal and Karnataka are saying that jobs have been created in

their respective states then how it is possible that at the national level

there is no employment generation he pointed out

Recently Finance Minister Arun Jaitley had also stoutly defended the

growth data saying an economy cannot be growing at 7-8 per cent

without creating jobs

He had also stated that no major social agitation indicates it hasnt been

jobless growth

Kants statement comes against the backdrop of a report by Azim Premji

University suggesting that employment opportunities declined and 5

million men lost their jobs between 2016 and 2018

The decline in job opportunities coincided with demonetisation in

November 2016 although no direct causal relationship can be established

based only on these trends the State of Working India-2019 (SWI) report

said

According to a leaked National Sample Survey Oces (NSSOs) periodic

labour force survey (PLFS) report Indias unemployment rate had hit a 45-

year high of 61 per cent in 2017-18

Former RBI governor Raghuram Rajan had recently expressed doubts

over Indian economy growing at 7 per cent when not enough jobs were

being created and had said the current cloud over the GDP numbers must

be cleared by appointing an impartial body to look at the data

Kant said that India needs to accelerate its growth rate from 7 per cent to

10 per cent

He said India in the next three years will be amongst the top 25 countries

in the ease of doing business ranking of the World Bank

Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (IBC) Goods and Services Tax (GST) and

RERA were major reforms undertaken by the Modi government Kant said

adding that real impact of these reforms will start reecting in next two

years The Niti Aayog CEO also pitched for opening up of mining and coal

sectors for boost job creation

High growth achieved by India notpossible without job creation Kant

PTI April 17 2019

New Delhi Apr 17 (PTI) Niti Aayog CEO Amitabh Kant Wednesday said India

has been growing at more than 7 per cent rate and this could not have been

achieved without adequate job creation

Speaking on the sidelines of a PHD Chambers of Commerce event Kant said

that when non-NDA ruled states like Karnataka and West Bengal are claiming

that jobs are being created then it was not possible that at all India level

employment is not being generated

How is it possible that we are having 75 per cent growth and jobs are not

being created It is not possible

If West Bengal and Karnataka are saying that jobs have been created in

their respective states then how it is possible that at the national level there is

no employment generation he pointed out

Recently Finance Minister Arun Jaitley had also stoutly defended the growth

data saying an economy cannot be growing at 7-8 per cent without creating

jobs

He had also stated that no major social agitation indicates it hasnt been

jobless growth

Kants statement comes against the backdrop of a report by Azim Premji

University suggesting that employment opportunities declined and 5 million

men lost their jobs between 2016 and 2018

The decline in job opportunities coincided with demonetisation in

November 2016 although no direct causal relationship can be established

based only on these trends the State of Working India-2019 (SWI) report said

According to a leaked National Sample Survey Offices (NSSOs) periodic

labour force survey (PLFS) report Indias unemployment rate had hit a 45-year

high of 61 per cent in 2017-18

Former RBI governor Raghuram Rajan had recently expressed doubts over

Indian economy growing at 7 per cent when not enough jobs were being

created and had said the current cloud over the GDP numbers must be cleared

by appointing an impartial body to look at the data

Kant said that India needs to accelerate its growth rate from 7 per cent to 10

per cent

He said India in the next three years will be amongst the top 25 countries in

High growth achieved by India not possiblewithout job creation KantWed 17 Apr 2019-900 pm

Niti Aayog CEO Amitabh Kant Wednesday said India has been growing at

more than 7 per cent rate and this could not have been achieved without

adequate job creation

Speaking on the sidelines of a PHD Chambers of Commerce event Kant

said that when non-NDA ruled states like Karnataka and West Bengal are

claiming that jobs are being created then it was not possible that at all

India level employment is not being generated

How is it possible that we are having 75 per cent growth and jobs are not

being created It is not possible

If West Bengal and Karnataka are saying that jobs have been created in

their respective states then how it is possible that at the national level

there is no employment generation he pointed out

Recently Finance Minister Arun Jaitley had also stoutly defended the

growth data saying an economy cannot be growing at 7-8 per cent

without creating jobs

He had also stated that no major social agitation indicates it hasnt been

jobless growth

Kants statement comes against the backdrop of a report by Azim Premji

University suggesting that employment opportunities declined and 5

million men lost their jobs between 2016 and 2018

The decline in job opportunities coincided with demonetisation in

November 2016 although no direct causal relationship can be established

based only on these trends the State of Working India-2019 (SWI) report

said

According to a leaked National Sample Survey Oces (NSSOs) periodic

labour force survey (PLFS) report Indias unemployment rate had hit a 45-

year high of 61 per cent in 2017-18

Former RBI governor Raghuram Rajan had recently expressed doubts

over Indian economy growing at 7 per cent when not enough jobs were

being created and had said the current cloud over the GDP numbers must

be cleared by appointing an impartial body to look at the data

Kant said that India needs to accelerate its growth rate from 7 per cent to

10 per cent

He said India in the next three years will be amongst the top 25 countries

in the ease of doing business ranking of the World Bank

Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (IBC) Goods and Services Tax (GST) and

RERA were major reforms undertaken by the Modi government Kant said

adding that real impact of these reforms will start reecting in next two

years The Niti Aayog CEO also pitched for opening up of mining and coal

sectors for boost job creation

High growth achieved by India not possiblewithout job creation KantWed 17 Apr 2019-900 pm

Niti Aayog CEO Amitabh Kant Wednesday said India has been growing at

more than 7 per cent rate and this could not have been achieved without

adequate job creation

Speaking on the sidelines of a PHD Chambers of Commerce event Kant

said that when non-NDA ruled states like Karnataka and West Bengal are

claiming that jobs are being created then it was not possible that at all

India level employment is not being generated

How is it possible that we are having 75 per cent growth and jobs are not

being created It is not possible

If West Bengal and Karnataka are saying that jobs have been created in

their respective states then how it is possible that at the national level

there is no employment generation he pointed out

Recently Finance Minister Arun Jaitley had also stoutly defended the

growth data saying an economy cannot be growing at 7-8 per cent

without creating jobs

jobless growth

Kants statement comes against the backdrop of a report by Azim Premji

University suggesting that employment opportunities declined and 5

million men lost their jobs between 2016 and 2018

The decline in job opportunities coincided with demonetisation in

November 2016 although no direct causal relationship can be established

based only on these trends the State of Working India-2019 (SWI) report

said

According to a leaked National Sample Survey Oces (NSSOs) periodic

labour force survey (PLFS) report Indias unemployment rate had hit a 45-

year high of 61 per cent in 2017-18

High growth achieved by India notpossible without job creation Kant

PTI April 17 2019

New Delhi Apr 17 (PTI) Niti Aayog CEO Amitabh Kant Wednesday said India

has been growing at more than 7 per cent rate and this could not have been

achieved without adequate job creation

Speaking on the sidelines of a PHD Chambers of Commerce event Kant said

that when non-NDA ruled states like Karnataka and West Bengal are claiming

that jobs are being created then it was not possible that at all India level

employment is not being generated

How is it possible that we are having 75 per cent growth and jobs are not

being created It is not possible

If West Bengal and Karnataka are saying that jobs have been created in

their respective states then how it is possible that at the national level there is

no employment generation he pointed out

Recently Finance Minister Arun Jaitley had also stoutly defended the growth

data saying an economy cannot be growing at 7-8 per cent without creating

jobs

He had also stated that no major social agitation indicates it hasnt been

jobless growth

Kants statement comes against the backdrop of a report by Azim Premji

University suggesting that employment opportunities declined and 5 million

men lost their jobs between 2016 and 2018

The decline in job opportunities coincided with demonetisation in

November 2016 although no direct causal relationship can be established

based only on these trends the State of Working India-2019 (SWI) report said

According to a leaked National Sample Survey Offices (NSSOs) periodic

labour force survey (PLFS) report Indias unemployment rate had hit a 45-year

high of 61 per cent in 2017-18

Former RBI governor Raghuram Rajan had recently expressed doubts over

Indian economy growing at 7 per cent when not enough jobs were being

created and had said the current cloud over the GDP numbers must be cleared

by appointing an impartial body to look at the data

Kant said that India needs to accelerate its growth rate from 7 per cent to 10

per cent

He said India in the next three years will be amongst the top 25 countries in

High growth achieved by India notpossible without job creation Kant

PTI April 17 2019

New Delhi Apr 17 (PTI) Niti Aayog CEO Amitabh Kant Wednesday said India

has been growing at more than 7 per cent rate and this could not have been

achieved without adequate job creation

Speaking on the sidelines of a PHD Chambers of Commerce event Kant said

that when non-NDA ruled states like Karnataka and West Bengal are claiming

that jobs are being created then it was not possible that at all India level

employment is not being generated

How is it possible that we are having 75 per cent growth and jobs are not

being created It is not possible

If West Bengal and Karnataka are saying that jobs have been created in

their respective states then how it is possible that at the national level there is

no employment generation he pointed out

Recently Finance Minister Arun Jaitley had also stoutly defended the growth

data saying an economy cannot be growing at 7-8 per cent without creating

jobs

He had also stated that no major social agitation indicates it hasnt been

jobless growth

Kants statement comes against the backdrop of a report by Azim Premji

University suggesting that employment opportunities declined and 5 million

men lost their jobs between 2016 and 2018

The decline in job opportunities coincided with demonetisation in

November 2016 although no direct causal relationship can be established

based only on these trends the State of Working India-2019 (SWI) report said

According to a leaked National Sample Survey Offices (NSSOs) periodic

labour force survey (PLFS) report Indias unemployment rate had hit a 45-year

high of 61 per cent in 2017-18

Former RBI governor Raghuram Rajan had recently expressed doubts over

Indian economy growing at 7 per cent when not enough jobs were being

created and had said the current cloud over the GDP numbers must be cleared

by appointing an impartial body to look at the data

Kant said that India needs to accelerate its growth rate from 7 per cent to 10

per cent

He said India in the next three years will be amongst the top 25 countries in

High growth achieved by India not possiblewithout job creation KantWed 17 Apr 2019-900 pm

Niti Aayog CEO Amitabh Kant Wednesday said India has been growing at

more than 7 per cent rate and this could not have been achieved without

adequate job creation

Speaking on the sidelines of a PHD Chambers of Commerce event Kant

said that when non-NDA ruled states like Karnataka and West Bengal are

claiming that jobs are being created then it was not possible that at all

India level employment is not being generated

How is it possible that we are having 75 per cent growth and jobs are not

being created It is not possible

If West Bengal and Karnataka are saying that jobs have been created in

their respective states then how it is possible that at the national level

there is no employment generation he pointed out

Recently Finance Minister Arun Jaitley had also stoutly defended the

growth data saying an economy cannot be growing at 7-8 per cent

without creating jobs

He had also stated that no major social agitation indicates it hasnt been

jobless growth

Kants statement comes against the backdrop of a report by Azim Premji

University suggesting that employment opportunities declined and 5

million men lost their jobs between 2016 and 2018

The decline in job opportunities coincided with demonetisation in

November 2016 although no direct causal relationship can be established

based only on these trends the State of Working India-2019 (SWI) report

said

According to a leaked National Sample Survey Oces (NSSOs) periodic

labour force survey (PLFS) report Indias unemployment rate had hit a 45-

year high of 61 per cent in 2017-18

Former RBI governor Raghuram Rajan had recently expressed doubts

over Indian economy growing at 7 per cent when not enough jobs were

being created and had said the current cloud over the GDP numbers must

be cleared by appointing an impartial body to look at the data

Kant said that India needs to accelerate its growth rate from 7 per cent to

10 per cent

He said India in the next three years will be amongst the top 25 countries

in the ease of doing business ranking of the World Bank

Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (IBC) Goods and Services Tax (GST) and

RERA were major reforms undertaken by the Modi government Kant said

adding that real impact of these reforms will start reecting in next two

years The Niti Aayog CEO also pitched for opening up of mining and coal

sectors for boost job creation

The government`s focus was to improve the growth rate he further said

If West Bengal and Karnataka say that jobs have been created in their respective states then how it is possible that there is noemployment generation Kant asked

High growth achieved by India not possiblewithout job creation KantWed 17 Apr 2019-900 pm

Niti Aayog CEO Amitabh Kant Wednesday said India has been growing at

more than 7 per cent rate and this could not have been achieved without

adequate job creation

Speaking on the sidelines of a PHD Chambers of Commerce event Kant

said that when non-NDA ruled states like Karnataka and West Bengal are

claiming that jobs are being created then it was not possible that at all

India level employment is not being generated

How is it possible that we are having 75 per cent growth and jobs are not

being created It is not possible

If West Bengal and Karnataka are saying that jobs have been created in

their respective states then how it is possible that at the national level

there is no employment generation he pointed out

Recently Finance Minister Arun Jaitley had also stoutly defended the

growth data saying an economy cannot be growing at 7-8 per cent

without creating jobs

He had also stated that no major social agitation indicates it hasnt been

jobless growth

Kants statement comes against the backdrop of a report by Azim Premji

University suggesting that employment opportunities declined and 5

million men lost their jobs between 2016 and 2018

The decline in job opportunities coincided with demonetisation in

November 2016 although no direct causal relationship can be established

based only on these trends the State of Working India-2019 (SWI) report

said

According to a leaked National Sample Survey Oces (NSSOs) periodic

labour force survey (PLFS) report Indias unemployment rate had hit a 45-

year high of 61 per cent in 2017-18

Former RBI governor Raghuram Rajan had recently expressed doubts

over Indian economy growing at 7 per cent when not enough jobs were

being created and had said the current cloud over the GDP numbers must

be cleared by appointing an impartial body to look at the data

Kant said that India needs to accelerate its growth rate from 7 per cent to

10 per cent

He said India in the next three years will be amongst the top 25 countries

in the ease of doing business ranking of the World Bank

Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (IBC) Goods and Services Tax (GST) and

RERA were major reforms undertaken by the Modi government Kant said

adding that real impact of these reforms will start reecting in next two

years The Niti Aayog CEO also pitched for opening up of mining and coal

sectors for boost job creation

there is no employment generation he pointed out

High growth achieved by India not possiblewithout job creation KantWed 17 Apr 2019-900 pm

Niti Aayog CEO Amitabh Kant Wednesday said India has been growing at

more than 7 per cent rate and this could not have been achieved without

adequate job creation

Speaking on the sidelines of a PHD Chambers of Commerce event Kant

said that when non-NDA ruled states like Karnataka and West Bengal are

claiming that jobs are being created then it was not possible that at all

India level employment is not being generated

How is it possible that we are having 75 per cent growth and jobs are not

being created It is not possible

If West Bengal and Karnataka are saying that jobs have been created in

their respective states then how it is possible that at the national level

there is no employment generation he pointed out

Recently Finance Minister Arun Jaitley had also stoutly defended the

growth data saying an economy cannot be growing at 7-8 per cent

without creating jobs

httpswwwzeebizcomagencieshigh-growth-achieved-by-india-not-possible-without-job-creation-kant-95200amp 23

He had also stated that no major social agitation indicates it hasnt been

jobless growth

Kants statement comes against the backdrop of a report by Azim Premji

University suggesting that employment opportunities declined and 5

million men lost their jobs between 2016 and 2018

The decline in job opportunities coincided with demonetisation in

November 2016 although no direct causal relationship can be established

based only on these trends the State of Working India-2019 (SWI) report

said

According to a leaked National Sample Survey Oces (NSSOs) periodic

labour force survey (PLFS) report Indias unemployment rate had hit a 45-

year high of 61 per cent in 2017-18

Former RBI governor Raghuram Rajan had recently expressed doubts

over Indian economy growing at 7 per cent when not enough jobs were

being created and had said the current cloud over the GDP numbers must

be cleared by appointing an impartial body to look at the data

Kant said that India needs to accelerate its growth rate from 7 per cent to

10 per cent

He said India in the next three years will be amongst the top 25 countries

in the ease of doing business ranking of the World Bank

Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (IBC) Goods and Services Tax (GST) and

RERA were major reforms undertaken by the Modi government Kant said

adding that real impact of these reforms will start reecting in next two

years The Niti Aayog CEO also pitched for opening up of mining and coal

sectors for boost job creation

It is impossible to say that India witnessed seven per cent growth without any job creation or increase in employmentopportunities said Amitabh Kant Chief Executive Officer NITI Aayog on Wednesday

It is absolutely impossible to say that seven per cent of growth happened without any job creation or increase in employmentopportunities If one looks at our analysis the number of schemes launched and keeping all the other factors in mind there hasbeen a continuous process of job creation Kant told reporters

Our country`s ambition should be of achieving 10 per cent growth when we will reach this level we will be able to lift up amaximum number of people above the poverty line he added

The government`s focus was to improve the growth rate he further said

If West Bengal and Karnataka say that jobs have been created in their respective states then how it is possible that there is noemployment generation Kant asked

High growth achieved by India not possiblewithout job creation KantWed 17 Apr 2019-900 pm

Niti Aayog CEO Amitabh Kant Wednesday said India has been growing at

more than 7 per cent rate and this could not have been achieved without

adequate job creation

Speaking on the sidelines of a PHD Chambers of Commerce event Kant

said that when non-NDA ruled states like Karnataka and West Bengal are

claiming that jobs are being created then it was not possible that at all

India level employment is not being generated

How is it possible that we are having 75 per cent growth and jobs are not

being created It is not possible

If West Bengal and Karnataka are saying that jobs have been created in

their respective states then how it is possible that at the national level

there is no employment generation he pointed out

Recently Finance Minister Arun Jaitley had also stoutly defended the

growth data saying an economy cannot be growing at 7-8 per cent

without creating jobs

He had also stated that no major social agitation indicates it hasnt been

jobless growth

Kants statement comes against the backdrop of a report by Azim Premji

University suggesting that employment opportunities declined and 5

million men lost their jobs between 2016 and 2018

The decline in job opportunities coincided with demonetisation in

November 2016 although no direct causal relationship can be established

based only on these trends the State of Working India-2019 (SWI) report

said

According to a leaked National Sample Survey Oces (NSSOs) periodic

labour force survey (PLFS) report Indias unemployment rate had hit a 45-

year high of 61 per cent in 2017-18

Former RBI governor Raghuram Rajan had recently expressed doubts

over Indian economy growing at 7 per cent when not enough jobs were

being created and had said the current cloud over the GDP numbers must

be cleared by appointing an impartial body to look at the data

Kant said that India needs to accelerate its growth rate from 7 per cent to

10 per cent

He said India in the next three years will be amongst the top 25 countries

in the ease of doing business ranking of the World Bank

Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (IBC) Goods and Services Tax (GST) and

RERA were major reforms undertaken by the Modi government Kant said

adding that real impact of these reforms will start reecting in next two

years The Niti Aayog CEO also pitched for opening up of mining and coal

sectors for boost job creation
