The Report of the Committee examines many important issues, but the ones
that stand out most powerfully are employment and education. In order to ensure
access to food and other essentials of a healthy life for all citizens, India faces the
challenge of generating 200 million new employment opportunities over the next two
decades. This report calls for raising employment generation to the top of the nation’s
development agenda and marshaling all available resources to create employment
opportunities for all job-seekers. It goes even further by identifying the sectors which
offer the greatest potential for job creation as well as critical policy issues that need to
be addressed in order to fully tap that potential.
