Says State will take all possible steps to protect economic interests of local youth. “While the State shall take all possible steps to protect economic interests of local youth, all possible mechanisms shall be developed to promote harmony with the youth coming from other parts of the country for jobs for which local youth are not available,” a policy recommendation under the Industry & Socio-Cultural Impact sub section, reads.
The Policy lists 16 categories of youth from LGBT, SC/ST/OBC, drop outs, rural youth, juvenile offenders, youth in coastal belt and mining belt, under the target groups category and says that each of these groups require focused attention.
The policy also stressed on advocating zero tolerance to sexual offences against women and children while also promoting the idea of gender justice and mutual respect for each other through sensitization programmes and activities.
