New Delhi: Budget 2018-19 proposes several measures, including promoting exports and supporting fixed tenure jobs, to create employment. To create quick jobs, the budget mentioned that the government is rolling out fixed-term contractual jobs across industry segments. But both industry and the government believe it will add more jobs and reflect a shift in the government’s policy from job security to job creation. However, some experts feel the budget does not address the problems of employment creation in a holistic sense. We are now firmly on course to achieve high growth of 8% plus,” he said in his budget speech.
