The Scourge of Unemployment: Youth vs. Government

Today, unemployed youth can be found everywhere. Just recently, the NEET exam was cancelled, and who knows how many young people took their own lives as a result. With the youth currently facing such unemployment, a Supreme Court Justice went so far as to label us "cockroaches." Yes, perhaps we are cockroaches—but we do not survive by begging for what is rightfully someone else's. We may struggle to secure even two square meals a day, but our humanity remains very much alive. A storm of unemployment is sweeping across the entire nation, particularly in Bihar. The youth of Bihar are often forced to migrate to other states in search of work; yet, regardless of which government has come to power here, every single one has made promises—only to break them all. They have done nothing but exploit the youth of Bihar. I, myself, am one such "cockroach" 🪳; the stark reality behind my unemployment is this very government—and this system must be changed.
