Millions of Jobs - Possible or Not? (Paperback)  (Paperback, A.V. Varadharajan)

This is not an academic study or a research report. These are the simple and frank views of an entrepreneur based on the thoughts shared with the concerned people. The purpose of this book is to indicate possible solutions to generate millions of jobs to eradicate poverty. Solutions mentioned in the book or totally different, unconventional and yet implementable. The concept, mechanism and prospects of employment generation are the focused areas. However, the related subjects of farming and providing houses at affordable cost is also touched since the quality and standard of life mainly depends on the availability of nutritious food and a roof over every head, to protect from sun and rain. In general, prosperity for everyone is a beautiful dream, but always a hard one to achieve. Leave alone the prosperity – we are struggling for the past 75 years to remove the deplorable sufferings of the people below the poverty line. In our country, the problem of the masses and the poor is not in the non-availability of food – but it is non-availability of jobs. This book, “Millions of Jobs – Possible or not” tries to find ways and means for massive employment generation to provide jobs to two billion hands. Providing a job to earn is the first step to eradicating poverty and a way to attain prosperity. Frank analysis on the current status, rational suggestions for development will provide food for thought to the policymakers, politicians, administrators, financial institutions and entrepreneurs.
