Employment in factories should be given only to the locals only.outsiders should be given a chance only when technically skilled people are not available locally.

Factories should run peacefully.Our government is implementing Yuva Nidhi scheme for unemployed graduates.
This scheme will be launched on January 12.The graduates will be trained by the government,according to the demand for the professional skills needed.
Factories help in the increase GDP growth and development of the state.Employment must be mainly given to the families whose land has been acquired for the establishment of the factories.
Locals should get priority. If there are no professionally skilled people,then it is advisable to train them and recruit.
New factories are given approval in order to provide employment for the locals,If they do not provide employment,the purpose of the government will not be fulfilled.
Our government is committed and ready to provide necessary facilities and relaxations to industries.Our government is not against industries.
