Question : Which of the following is NOT a reason for the high rate of unemployment among youth in India?

Option 1: Lack of employability skills

Option 2: Limited job opportunities

Option 3: Preference for self-employment

Option 4: Inadequate education and training

Team Careers360 22nd Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: Preference for self-employment


Solution : The correct answer is (c) Preference for self-employment

While lack of employability skills, limited job opportunities, and inadequate education and training are commonly cited reasons for high youth unemployment in India, the preference for self-employment is not typically considered a significant factor contributing to the high rate of youth unemployment. In fact, self-employment is often seen as a potential solution to address the job scarcity and create opportunities for youth entrepreneurship.

However, it's important to note that the reasons for unemployment can vary among individuals, and some youth may indeed prefer self-employment due to factors such as entrepreneurial aspirations or a desire for independence. Nonetheless, in the broader context of high youth unemployment in India, the lack of employability skills, limited job opportunities, and inadequate education and training are generally recognized as more significant factors.

Question : Which of these statements is true?
1:In India, a large portion of total education spending goes toward elementary education.
2: Young people with higher education have the greatest unemployment rates.

Option 1: Only A

Option 2: Only B

Option 3: Both of the above

Option 4: None of the above

Team Careers360 24th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: Both of the above


Solution : Higher education accounts for the least amount of the total budget and elementary education for the most. The government places more focus on elementary education because it is the foundational or first level of schooling.
The fact that educated people have higher unemployment rates is partly due to their unwillingness to work in low-wage informal jobs, but also because there aren't enough paying conventional positions available for them.
Hence option c is the correct answer.
