Unemployment doubles during Congress rule in U'khand: Report
The number of unemployed youths in Uttarakhand has risen to 9.38 lakh from 5.65 lakh five years ago, according to recent data. Chief Minister Harish Rawat's spokesperson said that the state government alone cannot be held responsible for the growing rate of unemployment because the Centre's policies also affect it. Notably, Congress' promised allowance to unemployed youths was soon reduced.
