Unemployment is Big Issue in The World
Thousand of B.A’s and M.A’s are idle as they cannot event get the jobs of any kind. The causes of large scale unemployment are many.
Unemployment means not having enough jobs to employ the unemployment. Unemployment is the mother of countless evils. Now a day’s unemployment is big issue in the world. It pollutes the society and wrecks the political fabric of the country. It turns the law-abiding and honest men into criminals and dacoits. It is difficult to expect truth, nobility and honesty from a person who cannot have two square meals a day, and who cannot provide a morsel of food or a dose of medicine to his sick wife and ailing children. A long spell of poverty and unemployment is a great menace to the state.
In Pakistan, we find increasing unemployment in different fields. Thousand of B.A’s and M.A’s are idle as they cannot event get the jobs of clerks. The causes of large scale unemployment are many.
First of all, the population of Pakistan and other developing countries is rising fast. It becomes difficult to meet the needs of all the additional population. If population goes on increasing at the present speed, all efforts of the government to provide employment and food for the public are bound to fail.
The slow economic and scientific progress is perhaps the greatest cause of unemployment. Because of sluggish industrial growth, there are not many large factories and industrial centers where laborers, skilled workers and fresh graduates can get employed.
The defected system of our education is also responsible for this serious problem. We neglect technical education. Our young men do not like physical strive. There are not enough desk jobs available in the country. As a result unemployment prevails in the society. Moreover, decline of cottage and small industries is also a cause of unemployment. The increasing demand of goods is also a cause of unemployment. The demands for the local made products have decreased. This thing has created a lot of problems not only for government but also for the highly skilled artisans.
To get rid of this problem, we have to develop our economy on modern lines. Our agriculture system is backward. We must develop it with new techniques. Besides, we need to develop our cottage industries. The industries need less capital and more manpower.
Rapid industrialization can remove the dark clouds of unemployment. In rural areas, small-scale industries should be set up. The government should set up. The government should set up the new factories at as many places as possible. Unemployed and skilled workers will be able to get employment in large number.
Our government is trying to solve this problem as early as possible. But in spite of all much more is needed. The concept of education should be changed. Planed distribution of wealth should be ensured. Population must keep within reasonable limits. The government must create powerful stimulus for the foreign investors. The menace of unemployment cannot be overcome without effective planning. It is only after a long struggle that we can get rid of this evil.
