On February 21, 2022 the rate of unemployment was going up to 7.89 which is biggest jump in the second month of this year, according to CMIE. However, this is just statistics, the reality is much grimmer and ruthless. Almost all the young people, not to mention those post youth, are facing the challenge of finding an employment, at any level. Even the lives of pre -youth adolescents are clouded by pessimism.

Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan must be wishing he hadn’t told Russia’s RT television network that he wanted a TV debate with Indian counterpart Narendra Modi. What must be striking to Imran Khan and his countrymen and countrywomen is that cricketer Khan’s wish elicited a reply not from Prime Minister Narendra Modi, but from Thiruvananthapuram Congress MP Shashi Tharoor, who spoke of “jaw–jaw” only to see Russia start “war-war.”

We have many food assistance programmes but not food for all, as the latest Hunger Watch Survey II has found. Food insecurity still hounds people at household level though India is self-sufficient in food at national level.
