SHILLONG, Aug 30: Local Member of Legislative Assembly (MLA) of South Shillong constituency Sanbor Shullai has expressed concern over the increasing unemployment in Meghalaya.
Shullai was speaking at a felicitation and award function for officials and trainees that passed out of Shubham Skill Development Centre, Rilbong and organised by Greater Laban Community Development Society in the city on Wednesday.
“There is a huge concern in the State as unemployment is on the rise and this is a problem which has crippled both the State and the country,” he said.
He, however, said that the youth should not look only for government jobs, but also venture into starting their own business or turn to private sectors for job opportunities.
“There are plenty of schemes both of the Central and State governments, which the youths can avail of, especially those trained in skill development,” Shullai said.
