Zusammenfassung
In India, there is a deep disjoint between the modern-growth economy and the vast swathes of labour, especially in the low-skill category and in the hinterlands, resulting in the aggregate labour productivity remaining low. It is often stated that India needs to create as many as 8-10 million remunerative jobs annually over the next several years if any semblance of decent work is to be achieved. This is also the requirement of Sustainable Development Goals (SDG-8), to which the country is committed. The paper looks at the current employment scenario and puts forth a policy thrust for creating better quality jobs.
