The state governments of Haryana and Jharkhand have recently declared that their state would reserve 75% of their employment for `localsâ. For Jharkhand these reservations are for jobs paying up to Rs 30,000 a month and in Haryana, it is jobs earning less than Rs 50,000 a month in the private sector. The decision in Jharkhand was apparently taken looking at the large number of migrant youths coming back to their homes during the lockdown. The stateâs unemployment rate gradually fell down to 11.3% in January 2021 after rising up to 59.2% at the peak of the COVID-19 pandemic in May 2020, revealed the Economic Survey. In January 2020, the unemployment rate was 10.6%.
