Question

Why did the government launch initiatives focused on rural employment generation?

विकल्प

• Because India experienced GDP growth without proportional employment growth, especially in rural areas

• To eliminate all informal employment immediately

• To reduce GDP growth in rural areas

• To discourage private sector participation

Answer 1

The core problem identified is that India has witnessed GDP growth without commensurate employment growth. This imbalance, particularly affecting rural areas, prompted the government to launch specific initiatives like MGNREGA to ensure that economic growth translates into actual job creation.
