State government portal to tackle unemployment crisis in Delhi

Arvind Kejriwal-led Delhi government launched a job portal on Monday that will bring together employers and applicants in an effort to solve the city’s unemployment crisis, multiple news outlets reported.

The website—jobs.delhi.gov.in— will aim to help the growing number of people who have been left without a job due to the coronavirus pandemic by connecting them to employers whose businesses or jobs have also been affected by the dearth of workers.

Addressing a virtual press briefing the Delhi CM said, “There are people who want jobs and there are traders, businessmen, professionals, contractors who are not getting the right person for their work. This portal will fill this gap by bringing them together on one platform.”
