"content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, as you are aware, the issue of unemployment cannot be sorted out by the Ministry of Youth Affairs and Sports alone. We know that one of the root causes of unemployment is lack of skills by the youths. That is where we are trying to give them skills using the youth polytechnics. If some of the youths have access to some loans or funds through the Youth Enterprise Development Fund, they could become entrepreneurs and, in the process, also create employment. However, we all know that the best employment creation is achieved when the economy is growing. So, there are various indicators that need to show that the economy is growing to be able to absorb the large number of youths who are joining the labour market. However, there is a special segment of the youth population who my Ministry is mandated to take care of; those are the youths between 18 and 35 years."
