Assam: Bajali Youth Creates Opportunities For Others, Wins Accolades

NALBARI: A young person in Bajali in Assam, is receiving acclaim for using his entrepreneurial talents to transform his interest into a full-time business opportunity.

Three years ago, Sourav Jyoti Das, a native of Patacharkuchi in Bajali, began operating a poultry farm. Since then, Sourav’s company has grown, and he is now a successful businessman with 110 young people working for him on his chicken farm.

Speaking to the media, Sourav Jyoti said, “Many youths now work with me as opposed to getting depressed for not being able to land a government job.”

“We currently have 6 bighas of land in various locations across Bajali, up from the original 1 bigha on which I began my farm. And it’s thanks to all of their assistance and labor,” he affirmed.

He added, “I’m quite satisfied with my business, as opposed to remaining at home or working for certain private companies outside of our state. Our state would resemble Punjab and Uttar Pradesh if every young person enters this sector of agriculture.”

Because of his perseverance and hard effort, Sourav Jyoti has become a role model for many people who frequently lose faith when they are unable to obtain suitable employment.

It is very essential to be self-employed as it helps to reassure you that you may encourage yourself. Work enables you to feel proud and satisfied with yourself. Starting from paying bills and for leisure activities by working and earning money, employment is a beneficial thing in every person’s life. Even people with disabilities are increasingly visible in a variety of occupations across the community.

The BJP government, both at the Centre and the state, is encouraging self- employment for the youth, instead of opting for only government employment or employment in the private sector, self employment does not only open up opportunity for making it big and earning big bucks, it also provides an avenue for giving employment to other people, both skilled and unskilled.
