Work participation has steadily declined, unemployment is at 7% or more and median yearly income in 2020-21 was an abysmal Rs.1.7 lakh, as per CMIE.

In the past five years, the economic slowdown, pandemic and its disastrous response and the Narendra Modi government’s indifference to the common people has led to a steadily worsening economic crisis. The government, perhaps buoyed by electoral successes, has given up on reviving the living condition of the people.

Jobs are not even mentioned nowadays in sarkari discourse although the unemployment rate has stabilised at an unconscionable 7% or more since about October 2018, as shown in the chart below derived from data collected by sample surveys done by Centre for Monitoring Indian Economy or CMIE.

Meanwhile, the share of the working age population, which is either working or seeking jobs has – astonishingly – declined from about 45% in January 2017 to about 40% in March 2022.
