Efforts are being made for self-employment. Chief Minister Shri Chouhan said that loans are being given under the Udyam Kranti Yojana.
A bird gives wings to its hatchlings but does not give them a nest, so that they can fly high. That’s why instead of unemployment allowance, we are giving employment to the youth by training them. While training the youth, a stipend of Rs 8 to 10 thousand will be given as well. Subsequently they can start their own start-ups. Simultaneouly, permanent jobs will also be available in industries. The youth should resolve to stand on their feet.

I will never let my children be disappointed. I will not let your dreams die. The progress and development of the state will get new momentum. Those who want employment after 12th can register themselves in the scheme.
Chief Minister Chouhan said that youth should learn work wherever they can. They should strive to improve their life.

Work is going on in every direction. Every month 3 lakh sons and daughters are being linked with self-employment. Mukhyamantri Seekho-Kamao Yojana will be a unique experiment, which will be accepted by the whole country in the time to come if not today.
