India needs a million new jobs per month, to provide gainful livelihood and employment to the graduating adults. However, in spite of agencies such as Niti Aayog, NSSO, and EPFO giving a rosy picture, the ground reality is that jobs are not being created.

This will even be an issue in the ensuing elections and stands testimony to the fact that many flagship reforms by the government have not been a success.
