He further told the new recruits that they would become an important part of the government from today onwards and contribute towards the growth and development of India.

“It is a new journey of life for those who have got the appointment letter today. Being an important part of the government, you will be an active participant in the journey of a developed India”

PM Modi also stated that states such as Uttar Pradesh, Assam, Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra, Uttarakhand and many more will carry out their individual Rozgar Mela, which would contribute to the overall growth of the scheme as well.

PM Modi also highlighted the Karmayogi Prarambh iGOT module, which has been launched by the government in order to train the newly appointed government employees. Skill development is also a major focus of the iGOT module.
