State of #unemployment & #underemployment in India is pathetic. But comparing that to the SSR case is worse. If rallying behind a cause is what it takes to shake an age old toxic tree, then why aren’t the ones who care about unemployment doing it? I care about both but saying one
is more important than the other is simply foolish. One case is about our economy and other is about drugs and sex trafficking. Not just murder. Both are fcuking up our youth.
Our #education system is a massive loophole. The govt talks about #DigitalIndia but cannot make a digital platform for education during the lockdown? How are universities around the world conducting exams? Why can't we build something when we have the ability?
After #school students aren't guided as to which #college course to take up. They go like herds into #medical, #engineering or #commerce colleges because every average #indian is supposed to become a doctor, engineer or CA for some reason. Then we pile up degrees which dont work
ALL entry level jobs are #sales or #customerservice. It doesn't matter if you want to do marketing, BD, operations etc - you HAVE TO do sales in some form? Very few firms authentically stick to real job descriptions. Who is one the other side of your Swiggy customer call? What
degree does that person have? Is this what they want to do with their life? If not, then they are underemployed. Youth are supposed to slog their asses for minimum pay. And if you live in #Mumbai, you have to get crushed in trains & buses to just make it to office & back.
So the next time you say #Modi is great or #Gandhi is great - ask yourself this - how has their governance made your life better? If it hasn't OR if it has made your life worse, then the government isn't doing the job that it was elected for. They're public servants because we
pay hefty taxes for simply existing. They're not doing us a favour by building a hospital. It is OUR money coming back to us. If you paid for an saree, would you accept it if it was dirty with holes in it? Then why do you accept the fuckery that is #SionHospital, #CooperHospital?
