 OVERVIEW OF THE PROJECT

“Unemployment of Youth” is very vital issue in India as second most populous country in
the world having a large chunk of working population with significant portion of youth. As
per the projection of National commission on Population (NCP), the total population of India
would be 1400 million in 2026, out of which the youth population would be approximately
20 percent i.e 280 million. The growth of Youth population is faster as compared to any
other age group. Youth unemployment is an obstacle for economic wellbeing and poverty
reduction. Unemployment among youth creates number of socio-economic problems.

“Mukhyamantri Nischay Swayam Sahayata Bhatta Yojana” or “Self-Help Allowance”

scheme is a new initiative of state government of Bihar. Under this initiative, State

 INTRODUCTION

“Unemployment of Youth” is very vital issue in India as second most populous country in
the world having a large chunk of working population with significant portion of youth. As
per the projection of National commission on Population (NCP), the total population of India
would be 1400 million in 2026, out of which the youth population would be approximately
20 percent i.e 280 million. The growth of Youth population is faster as compared to any
other age group. Youth unemployment is an obstacle for economic wellbeing and poverty
reduction. Unemployment among youth creates number of socio-economic problems.

Youth as group is an heterogeneous one with the wide variation in educational qualification,
health and economic well-being. Youths are generally unskilled and inexperienced, as they
enter into the labor market just after completion of their schooling. This transition phase is
very crucial from schooling to working. Unemployment of youth creates a sense of
vulnerability, feeling of uselessness and idleness among young people and can heighten
the attraction of engagement in illegal activities.

Although Bihar has one of the lowest proportion of young people and unemployment of
youth in age group 15-29 age is higher at 17.5% than the national average. Youth
Unemployment Rate in India decreased to 12.90 percent in 2013 from 18.10 percent in
2012. Youth Unemployment Rate in India averaged 15.50 percent from 2012 until 2013,
reaching an all-time high of 18.10 percent in 2012 and a record low of 12.90 percent in
2013.

Bihar’s 104 million people out of 28 million are between 15 to 30 years of age. That’s 27%
of the population, lower than the national average of 30% and lowest of India’s poorest
states (Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, Jharkhand and Odisha).
As per the unemployment in Bihar based on education level is below primary level
education, primary level and middle /secondary / higher secondary level unemployment is
respectively 2.9%, 2.5% and 8.4%.

“Mukhyamantri Nischay Swayam Sahayata Bhatta Yojana” or “Self-Help Allowance”
scheme is a new initiative of state government of Bihar. Under this initiative, State
Government would financially assist the unemployed youth to find a job. Under the
“Swayam Sahayata Bhatta Yojana (Self Help Allowance)”, Bihar government would
provide a financial assistance of Rs. 1000 to each unemployed youth for two years to find a
job. The scheme named as “Mukhyamantri Nischay Swayam Sahayata Bhatta Yojana”
was started on trial basis from 15th September. But, the scheme has been formerly
launched on 2nd October 2016.

Under this scheme, Self Help Allowance of Rs1000/per month will be given for two years as
assistance during the employment of unemployed youth of the state from 20 to 25 years.

Apart from this, youths receiving self-help allowance would compulsorily receive basic
training of languages (Hindi & English), communication skills, basic computer knowledge
and behavioral skills.

 OBJECTIVE AND SCOPE OF THE PROJECT

The main objective of the proposed study is to critically examine the progress made by
Bihar during successive two-Year Plans with regard to designing, developing and providing
barrier- free “Self Help Allowance” and usability by the persons with disabilities. The
study will aim to provide data and information regarding their involvement in designing and
development unemployment allowance to identifying barriers faced by the youths in
regards to usability “Self-Help Allowance”, effective practical measures for 3-months skill
training program and use of allowance for career development.. Bihar is pioneer state in
India to provide such kind of unemployment allowance state wide, especial arrangement
has been made through District Registration and counseling Centers(DRCC), bridging the
gap between youth and government department. The function of DRCC is most critical to
implement this scheme at large scale. This study will also examine the role of DRCC in
facilitation of unemployed youth to get unemployment allowance as well as career
development program for them.

The study would elicit specific data on “Self-Help Allowance”, details based on financial
status and activities that has been initiated by DRCC. The study is intended to basically
focus on how unemployed youth are participating in main course policy agenda of
development and more critically role of youth in development of Bihar.

 RESEARCH METHODOLOGY:
This research has mixed method i.e. Qualitative and Quantitative both, thus it comprises of
collecting and analyzing both kinds of data. The study also would involve the use of both
approaches so that overall strength of study is greater than either qualitative or quantitative
research. The study would follow an extensive approach using both quantitative and
qualitative methods to gather information and facts. Structured and semi structured
schedules/questionnaires with both open and closed ended questions would be used to
gather both quantitative and qualitative data. Interviews would be conducted with the target
population (beneficiaries of SHA). In addition, opinion and views of the State level
Government Department will also be taken.

Research Aim and Objectives

 This study has aim to analyze the impact of “Self Help Allowance” for unemployed
youth for age group (20-25 year)
 The effectiveness of 3 months skill training program in career development of
unemployed youth.

Research Tools

The tools of data collection would be through research questionnaire filled by beneficiaries
of SHA. The proposed participatory action research would also follow focused group
discussions with the unemployed youth.

The research tools would be required for conducting the In-depth Interviews as part of
primary source. The research technique to collect the data from secondary source would
be required from DRCC. The research tool to conduct the In-depth Interviews would be
developed organically after due participatory consultation with youth.

The Interview Schedule would be semi-structured and will have open / closed ended
questions. The questions would be of conversational style rather than a question- answer
format. These would facilitate to gather more information about the issues concerning with
the women leaders of federations.

38
Universe of Study

The study is proposed to be undertaken across Bihar covering all six zones- east, west,
north, south, central and north-east.

PRIMARY DATA

Methods of collecting primary data:-

 Direct personal Interview

 Direct Oral Investigation.
 Information From correspondents
 Schedule and Questionnaire
The primary data sources were the questionnaire, personal interview that was used to get
the information from sample. The questionnaire that was structured consists of both open-
ended questions as well as close-ended questions. It reduces the chances of error.

SECONDARY DATA

The secondary sources of data collection include the information’s collected from 38
DRCCs, Youth Sub-Mission office, and by discussing with the concerning Authorities.

PROCESSING AND ANALYSIS OF DATA:

The data after collection has been processed and analyzed in accordance with the outline
laid down for the purpose, at the time of developing the research plain. This is essential for
a scientific study and for ensuring that we have all relevant data and for making
contemplated compressions and analysis.

39
FINDINGS & RECOMMENDATION:-

By going through above data, collected through various districts of Bihar, 38 DRCCs and
Sub-Mission Office; my observation, interpretations & recommendations are as follows:-

1) ERROR in Application Form

Observation:-

Till date i.e. in the Financial Year 2018-19, only approx. 3.90 Lakhs applications
received and 2.9 Lakhs of applications been only approved. This suggests that the
rejection percentage is almost 26% which seems to be a high rejection percentage.

26%

Applications Approved
Applications Rejected

74%

Interpretation:-

 By analyzing the data collected through students of Rural areas, it has been observed that
the applications filling process available only through internet and there is no any proper
assistance available to them for filling up the online application form. This is resulting in
improper filling up of application forms by the youths and subsequently gets rejected further.
Youths of rural areas are also not computer friendly and thus unable to fill properly the
application form.
 Students who are graduates and searching for a job has not been included in this
program and subsequently results in rejection of application.

Recommendation:-

40
  Panchayat Samiti and Mukhiyas may be provided proper IT Support and IT
infrastructure for proper filling up of online application form.
 Mobile app with proper customization in user friendly way may be introduced to
reduce the error free application form.
 Unemployed Graduates may also be included in SHA program.

2) Current Vs Target data

Observation:-

It is observed that current figure of applications received is very less as compared to the targeted
figure i.e. current data of 3,89,414 against the targeted data of approx. 41 Lakhs till the
financial year 2018-19. Achievement percentage is only 9% till Sep’2018.

Target Achievement

Interpretation:-

By analyzing the data collected through students of Rural areas, it has been observed that
the applications filling process available only through internet and there is no any mobile app
facility available or hard copy submission facility available. Due to the lack of such facilities,
Youths of Rural areas facing difficulty in applying for the same and resulting for low
achievement%.

There is also poor awareness among the youths of Rural and urban areas w.r.t. the
beneficial aspect of this introduced plan.

41
Recommendation:-

 Panchayat Samiti and Mukhiyas may be provided proper IT Support and IT

infrastructure for proper filling up of online application form. This will help to increase
the number of youths applying for this facility.
 Mobile app with proper customization in user friendly way may be introduced to
increase the number of applicants.
 With the current district wise achievement% as given in district wise detail, district
contributing in less than 5% may be emphasized with proper communication and
market penetrating strategy to increase the strength of youths applying and getting
benefited through this scheme. Successful team of DRCC (achieving higher than
5%) may be rewarded to create a competitive environment in other DRCC team.
 Nukkad Natak may also be introduced in rural areas to increase the awareness
penetration of this SHA program.
 Proper marketing campaign in aggressive approach with proper support of Media
may be planned to increase the awareness penetration.
 Competitive Incentive scheme for mukhiyas may be introduced to increase the
number of applicants from rural.
 Non-monetary incentive scheme may also be taken for District Magistrates of all 38
districts of Bihar such as “Holiday Package to International destination”
sponsored by Bihar Government for top 5 winners.

42
 3.) Male Vs Female ratio

Observation:-

By analyzing the data of gender distribution applying for this scheme suggesting the overall
figure of 63% of Male and 37% of Female. Below given bar-diagram representing all 38
district wise male% vs Female% data.

Interpretation:-

With the above figure, it is been analyzed that “Kishanganj” is a district where 74% of female
candidates have applied for SHA scheme in comparison to 26% of Male candidates. “Araria” is
another district which suggests more female candidates (52%) than male candidates (48%).

This suggests that Kishanganj and Araria are only districts in Bihar where the Female candidates
are highly motivated for education and career building. Aside to this, Aurangabad, Purnia, Katihar,
Sheohar and Siwan are also showing the motivating result (not a big gap in Male% and Female
%).

Apart from these mentioned districts, others have a huge gap between Male and Female ratio
which clearly raises the question upon either female education is overlooked in these districts or
females staying in these districts are not career oriented.

43
Recommendation:-

 To increase the participation of females in this program, DRCC team should create
awareness among the people about the importance of study and being career oriented.
They should also be made aware of the benefits involved in SHA program.
 People should also be made aware of 35% horizontal female reservation provided by the
Bihar State Government to promote women empowerment.
 Emphasis on female education and various schemes involved to promote female education
must be actively monitored properly and proper strategic initiatives to be taken to increase
the female participation in the program.
 Incentive scheme (Monetary / Non-Monetary) may also be introduced for DRCC team to
increase female ratio for SHA plan in all districts of Bihar.

4.) Whether Amount provided under the SHA scheme is convincing

and sufficient.

Observation:

By communicating with the local youths and common citizen of Bihar, the common feedback
received that amount of Rs.1000 under SHA scheme is not sufficient to fulfill the basic requirement
of unemployed youths in purview with the inflation rate. Almost 90% of people said that Rs.1000
monthly is not sufficient and not convincing.

44
Interpretation:

The amount really seems to be very low w.r.t. the current inflation. Even with this amount, youths
can only fill up 1 or 2 forms only for any government vacancy. Since the amount is not convincing
which also may be one of the reason of low participation of the youths against the targeted number
for this plan.

Recommendation:

 Amount may be increased from Rs.1000 to Rs.3000. But this may increase the financial
burden on the State Government. To avoid this financial burden, state government may
introduce a monthly recovery plan for recovering 50% of the total amount paid under this
scheme, post getting the employment by these unemployed youths.
 If the amount remains same i.e. Rs.1000, then youths who have undergone this SHA facility
& involved training plan may be given discount of filling up the Bihar Government Jobs.

5) Whether SHA program provides assistance in Job placement.

Observation:

With the data collected it has been observed that out of 249343 candidates who had completed
SHA training, only 328 candidates have got the job till Sep’2018. The figure of Youth been
employed post training is too low against the number of people undergone the training under the
SHA plan.

45
Observation:

 With the above observation, it is clearly observed that the training provided under the plan is
not meeting the desired expectation of youths and State Government. There is no job
placement is been provided to the candidates undergoing the training under the scheme of
SHA.
 The certificate provided under this training scheme is not adding that much of value addition
to the youths profile which will help them to get the job fastly.
 This may also be analysed in different aspect that State is not providing the ample job
opportunities to the youths of Bihar for the successful implementation of SHA program.
Although, the training aspect is really promoting the youths in developing skill within them,
which will help them to build their career independently.

Recommendation:

Body like Beltron may be formed to promote trained persons and helping them to get contractual
position in Bihar State Government offices.

Beltron support may be taken to increase the job opportunity for the candidates undergone the
training under SHA program.

Certificate provided to trained Youths under SHA training program may have weightage in State
Government job vacancies to increase their chances of getting jobs.

Job placement assistance must be provided by the government with proper counseling to the
trained youths. This will also help the SHA program getting popular across the State and way
forward resulting in mass applications applied for SHA program by Youths of Bihar.

46
 CONCLUSION
“Mukhayamantri Nishchay Swayam Sahayta Bhatta” scheme is being implemented
under the Nishchay “Aarthik Hal Yuvaon Ko Bal” by the state government to support the
youth of Bihar while they are looking for employment and enhance their skills to make them
more suitable for employment. Under this scheme, unemployed youth between the ages of
20-25 years will be given Rs.1000 per month for two years to help them while they are
looking for employment. This scheme aims to provide self-help allowance to all
unemployed young men and women of the state.

Going through the observations of data analysis part, the “Impact of SHA program”
analyzed is as follows:-

 Youths of Bihar been taken care of for developing the skill in themselves which is a
very good initiative by the Honorable Chief Minister of Bihar “Nitish Kumar”.
 This program is helping the state in increasing the literacy rate among the youths
and in return will help to increase the growth of Bihar.
 The skilled youths of Bihar will not only help Bihar to grow but also will help to build a
strong Nation.
 Although the current number is not so encouraging as compared to the planned
figure for youths undergoing the training under SHA scheme but still the flame of
47
 career oriented approach has been smoldered in the society. The success of this
plan with the help of proper marketing and implementation strategy will help Bihar to
develop the industrial growth in the state with purview to the availability of Skilled
manpower / youths in abundance and in return will help to increase the GDP of
Bihar.
 Success of this SHA plan also requires government assistance in providing the job
placement either contractual or permanent in various projects of Bihar government.
 SHA program is also helping in skill development of rural youths and in replication
motivating further rural youths for going higher studies.
 This program is also helping the Female empowerment across the state supported
by horizontal 35% reservation for females in the government jobs. Although female
participation is good in only 5-6 districts but still the data suggests that awareness
among females is improving day by day. In coming few years, this program will help
in successfully increasing the high percentage of female participation in making a
highly educated society of Bihar.
 This program is also helping in building balanced “Educated and Skilled Bihar”
w.r.t. the balanced educated approach towards the different cast categories of Bihar.

Now let us conclude the topic by doing a SWOT Analysis given below:-

* STRENGTH:-

 Constructing “educated and skilled Bihar” by motivating the youths of rural / urban
areas for higher studies and development of skill.
 Increased Female participation and helping female empowerment across all the
districts of State.
 Educational and professional culture development in Bihar.
 Availability of skilled manpower in abundance will help the Industrial development in
Bihar.
 Rs. 1000 helping the unemployed youths in purchasing the competitive magazines
and books to prepare for the competitive examinations.
 For the successful implementation of the project / programmes, specific team has
been made such as Bihar Vikas Mission, DRCC, etc. This had helped in creation of
various posts in department and increasing the job employment in Bihar.

48
  This program is helping the state in increasing the literacy rate among the youths
and in return helping to increase the GDP of Bihar.
 The skilled youths of Bihar will not only help Bihar to grow but also will help to build a
strong Nation.

* WEAKNESS:-

 More marketing communication and effective strategy such as door to door

marketing is still missing to meet the expected resultant for the success of SHA
program.
 Non-awareness among all the youths, especially in rural areas, is creating a big gap
between the target applicants versus actual applicants till the month of
September’2018.
 Rs.1000 as help allowance is very less amount w.r.t. the current inflation. Thus
demotivating the youths to register for this program.
 Students who are graduates and searching for a job has not been included in this
program and subsequently results in rejection of application.

* OPPORTUNITY:-

 This plan helping in constructing educated and skilled Bihar. This will help to build a
knowledge base economy.
 Rural development by strengthening the youths of rural areas by making them
skilled.
 Availability of skilled manpower in abundant will attract the various industries to
come in Bihar and further will result in the financial growth and GDP growth of Bihar.
 Training under SHA program will help many youths of Bihar to be skillful and be
employed.
 With the increase in female participation will help the State in properly
implementation of the concept of “Women Empowerment”.

* THREAT:-

 In fail to the integrated approach towards the planned and targeted goal, State
government may finally land up in the huge monetary loss.

49
 in the case of non-availability of good numbers of Industry setups, Skilled and
educated manpowers may start migrating to other States which in turn may be a big
loss to Bihar w.r.t. GDP and economic growth of Bihar.
