It's about jobs

In the absence of high-quality jobs, we risk a future of social upheaval and frittering away the unique advantage of our young population

In “A contest of content in this election” (Business Standard, March 22, 2019), I argued instead of negatives and hate, we need to hear a strong positive message in the current election campaign. In particular, we need an emphasis on economic issues and rapid economic growth. I greatly appreciate the many kind comments received from various readers — and also the many critical comments. I seem to have equally irritated both strong supporters of the BJP and Congress. This article is written in the same spirit. It is about jobs.
