In J&K, the unemployment is a foremost challenge to the general public, while entrepreneurship is only an important intercession generate more jobs and provide youth more creative means of economic engagement.
Depending on the state government for providing job would make people continuously hanging in balance, while entrepreneurship has emerged as a significant sector for providing livelihood not only to the youth who adopt it but also to a chain of people who work in supplementary mode with them.
Notably, the capacities and capabilities of the youth of the State is remarkable, and optimistically it has been displayed quite often both at local and national levels. Thus, it is the inability of the state government which has failed to channelize the talent and energy of the youth of J&K. However, there are various smart schemes in micro, little and medium industry sectors which the youth should enroll into, set up units with small equity and register their capabilities locally and nationally. Particularly, it for the state government to be conscious about the difficulties and problems of the young entrepreneurs who are the future hope of the state. The government should deal with the difficulties and problems flagged by the young entrepreneurs on priority and efforts would be made to make their operations as easy as possible. The Government should set up a separate centre for women entrepreneurs to guide them about various schemes and encourage them to adopt the same.
Pertinently, indeed that the idea of a single window clearance mechanism be established at EDI, with representation from JK Bank, Departments of Industries, Revenue and other concerned agencies to clear their cases on spot, is well. Efforts of the EDI in providing the young minds a platform to realize their dreams, is the need of the hour. It is the need for seriously pursuing entrepreneurship in the State to tide over the problem of unemployment among youth. There is an urgent necessitate to reclaim the pride and confidence of youth who have much to offer to the State and the society.
