People from Jammu and Kashmir are "gifted and special" and the country needs to exploit their talent, Union Home Secretary Anil Goswami said here while reviewing a special employment project for the state initiated by the government in partnership with corporates.
The 1978-batch IAS officer, who belongs to Jammu and Kashmir cadre, said all issues related to the security and well-being of corporates and public enterprises who recruit the youth of the state will be taken care of.
The special programme called 'Udaan' aims at providing the required skill and enhance job opportunities of youth of J and K who are graduates or are in the final year of graduation.

"Jammu and Kashmir is special. People of Jammu and Kashmir are special. Our difficulty has been, somehow, that private and public entities have not been very forthcoming in coming down (to the state) and recruiting people," Goswami told the business partners at a meeting here who cited a host of problems they faced while recruiting in J and K.
He said he will thrash out certain issues in his capacity of being a Kashmiri himself and then talk as the Home Secretary of the country.
