However, a tweet by the Harsh Goenka, the chairman of RPG Enterprises, has left many thinking whether there is scarcity of jobs or scarcity of candidates with skills. Harsh Goenka posted that his company is not able to find enough construction workers, truck drivers and plantation workers and people keep complaining about unemployment in the country.

Here is what Harsh Goenka’s tweet read, “People in our country complain of unemployment. My own problem is to find skilled people in our business. We want construction workers- we can’t find enough! We want truck drivers- huge shortage! We want plantation workers- they are not available! Can’t understand solution. Do we need to mechanize more to reduce need of people? Do people not want to work and live on doles? Do we need to do more towards skill development? Do we need a digital platform that matches employees and employers effectively?”

Soon Indian online users started reacting to this issue with the majority citing that Indian middle class doesn’t want their kids to get employed in blue collar jobs, they just want white collar jobs despite the fact that blue collar jobs are also well-paid. One online user states that skill training centers are not able to find students because of this attitude of middle class people and one online user suggests Harsh Goenka to start a skill center and get people trained as per their requirement and then absorb them in his company.
