Addressing a function to distribute permanent appointment letters to 23,956 contractual teachers and state pool teachers, Sarma said the government will give jobs to another 50,000 youths by next year.

If we consider today's appointments, there will be 1,24,345 jobs till now since May 2021," he said.
