Ashwini Vaishnaw based his remarks on EPFO data, which experts say does not present a true picture since a bulk of the employment in the country is informal.

Union Minister for Railways, Communications, Electronics and Information Technology Ashwini Vaishnaw on November 24 used the Employees’ Provident Fund Organisation, or EPFO, payroll statistics to claim that an average of about 15-16 lakh jobs are being generated by the Union government every month. Growth in EPFO subscriptions, however, does not represent an accurate picture of employment generation in the country, our fact check has found.

Vaishnaw, speaking at a Rozgar Mela (employment fair) in Ajmer, Rajasthan, said that in April, May, June, July and August, an average of 15-16 lakh jobs were generated every month in the country. The data to support his statement were available on the EPFO (Ministry of Labour & Employment) and the Ministry of Statistics websites, said Vaishnaw.
