A significant thrust was placed on awareness and outreach. The Chief Minister directed departments to launch promotional campaigns across social media, local media, colleges, and employment centers. The goal is to ensure maximum participation from youth across urban and rural Rajasthan.
CM Sharma encouraged local influencers, student organizations, and NGOs to be involved in driving awareness about job opportunities, eligibility criteria, and the application process.
Directive 4: Transparent and Merit-Based Hiring
Reaffirming his commitment to fairness and transparency, CM Sharma reiterated that the Employment Festival must symbolize meritocracy. He warned against any malpractice and stressed that all departments must ensure:
Objective selection criteria
Online result publication
Biometric verification of candidates
Public grievance redressal mechanisms
This would reinforce public confidence and serve as a model for ethical government recruitment practices.
Directive 5: Inter-Departmental Coordination
To bring all components together, the CM called for close coordination between departments, suggesting weekly review meetings till the event. Officers were urged to collaborate on data sharing, verification, and finalization of job roles to avoid overlaps or confusion.
Chief Minister Sharma stated:
“The Employment Festival is not just an event—it’s a commitment to our youth. Every department must contribute proactively to make this a success.”
Vision Behind the Employment Festival
The Chief Minister’s Employment Festival aims to connect thousands of unemployed youth with government and semi-government jobs through a transparent, fast-paced, and merit-driven platform. The festival also serves to highlight Rajasthan’s efforts toward:
Youth empowerment
Skill-based employment
Administrative efficiency
Equal opportunity governance
Scheduled for July 2025, the festival is expected to attract participation from over 100 government departments, including education, health, infrastructure, police, IT, and agriculture.
Expected Outcomes
The Rajasthan government expects several positive outcomes from this initiative:
Faster job fulfillment in critical sectors
Increased trust in the state’s hiring process
Improved morale among eligible candidates
Stronger connection between government and citizens
Boosted state employment statistics
By ensuring the pending recruitment backlog is cleared, the government also aims to improve public service delivery, particularly in sectors suffering from manpower shortages.
