ILO predicts slight dip in unemployment in India
International Labour Organisation (ILO) findings on Wednesday revealed that India's unemployment rate will reduce slightly to 3.4% in 2016 and 2017, although it remained unchanged at 3.5% in 2014 and 2015. ILO chief of research Raymond Torres urged India to ensure better participation of women in labour markets and continue its employment scheme as withdrawing MGNREGS "would be a mistake."
