Kerala BJP leader Prakash Javadekar lambasts UDF, LDF for growing unemployment
New Indian ExpressKOCHI: Kerala BJP Prabhari Prakash Javadekar on Tuesday slammed the LDF and UDF over the high unemployment rate in Kerala, terming it a consequence of their bad governance model. Citing the latest Periodic Labour Force Survey from the statistics office, which revealed that Kerala’s unemployment rate is 30%, the former union minister said, “The unemployment rate is 47% for females and 19% for males in Kerala. The survey highlights a stark contrast between Kerala’s unemployment rates and those of other states, such as Madhya Pradesh and Gujarat where the rate is just 2.6% and 3.1%, respectively.” He alleged that the disparity underscored the “difference between effective governance models, particularly Modi’s Good Governance Model, and the bad governance of the LDF-UDF and INDI alliance.” The LDF-UDF alliance played politics over issues like Palestine, Intifada, appeasement of extremism instead of focusing on employment generation and development. “As a result, the aspirational, intelligent, hardworking and deserving youth are frustrated and are compelled to go to other states and countries for education and jobs,” he said.
