Due to the unexpectedly large number of candidates and concerns over exam security, the Odisha police conducted the exam on an airstrip, which served as an unconventional, large-scale exam hall.This widespread demand for jobs underscores the high unemployment and underemployment challenges in India. While official figures indicate an overall unemployment rate of 4.7% (as of November) and the government claims creation of 125 million jobs in the past decade, there remains a disconnect between economic growth and job availability. India’s GDP grew by 8.2% in the last quarter, and the job market expanded by 6% in 2024, yet many graduates around 30% remain unemployed, one of the highest rates globally.[MEDIA=youtube]fR7gLj5cVf4[/MEDIA]</blockquote>
