Economy Watch: India's Youth Face Rising Unemployment | Vantage with Palki Sharma

The International Labour Organisation (ILO) has released a report on the Indian workforce. It says, India's youth make up almost 83% of the unemployed population. Although youth employment saw an uptick from 2000 to 2019, the pandemic years have witnessed a sharp decline. The study points out that educated youths have faced much higher levels of unemployment during this period. This comes as leading economies – from Europe to China are also facing a jobs crisis.
How do global employment trends affect jobs in India? What challenges do upcoming graduates face – as they prepare to enter India’s jobs market? Palki Sharma brings you a report.
