Prashant Kishor Targets 10,000 Private Jobs for Bankipur Youth in 1 Year

2 articles · Updated · The Times of India · Aug 13

Summary

  • Bankipur MLA Prashant Kishor said he aims to help 10,000 unemployed or semi-skilled youths from the constituency secure private-sector jobs within a year.
  • Most of those placements would likely be outside Bihar, he said, because the state lacks enough industry and major employers to absorb them locally.
  • Kishor framed the jobs push as central to his politics, arguing Bihar’s economic distress and persistent migration must be addressed directly.
  • The target gives the newly elected Jan Suraaj founder a concrete benchmark as he begins his term representing Bankipur.
