"We ask 2 questions to the Modi government on these SHAM schemes: When will the Modi government provide details of the schemes?

"A government, which could not create a conducive environment for Private Investment and took measures to plunge it, is now acting as if it will suddenly NUDGE 500 top companies, to hire 4000 interns per year! Was there any stakeholder consultation before imposing this half-copied idea from the Congress Manifesto?" Kharge asked the government.

Kharge said that the Congress Manifesto had a Right to apprenticeship, but PM Modi's government's budget has mere internships forced upon the industry with no long-term solution in sight. (with Agency inputs)
