問題詳情

第二篇：Compared with much of the aging developed world, India is currently in the demographic dividend periodthat the country’s leaders believe will power India’s economic ascent as the number of young Indians in theworkforce grows. According to a recent Indian government report, over the next 20 years, India’s labor force isforecast to swell by nearly a third, while that of the industrialized world will shrink by 4%.Though there is ample labor force, a mismatch occurs between the supply of jobs, the quality of education,and the demand from India’s young people. Because of India’s jobs deficit, young Indians scramble to findsecure employment. In one example of this mismatch, 2.3 million applications were filed to compete for 368jobs in the local administration offered by the government of Uttar Pradesh, the most populous state in India.The qualifications for these low-ranking jobs required merely an elementary-school education and the ability toride a bicycle. Astonishingly, more than 250 applicants with doctorates and over 100,000 college graduatesapplied for these entry-level posts, which would compensate the workers with less than $250 per month.To boost secure and skilled jobs for those with higher degrees of education, the Prime Minister Modilaunched a high-profile initiative, Make in India, in February 2016 as an attempt to make India an easy place todo business. One of the biggest initiatives the Modi government proposed was to introduce a nationalgoods-and-service tax to replace the local levies and make it easier for companies to buy land for developmentand expansion.The hope for a secure and well-paying job, therefore, has motivated many high school Indian graduates toseek help with some form of private tutoring so that they can enter top colleges in India. As said by VipulSharma, a 20-year-old high school graduate currently enrolled at a private tutoring center, “I want a good careerin a place like Delhi or Mumbai. This is the best way to do it.”
