Bhubaneswar, June 26: The department of technical education today launched E Nijukti — the online facility to help young professionals and unemployed youth to get jobs under the state employment mission.

The facility, which became operational, has provisions for the job seekers to register themselves.

Under the mission, the state government provides facilities to all unemployed youths from matriculation to doctorate, from unskilled to honours graduates, to get suitable employment.

“Unemployed youths in the state, who are interested to get themselves trained in any particular skill or those, who are semi-skilled and wish to improve their skill, can register themselves with e Nijukti at www.empmissionodisha.gov.in.

“The department will connect them to the suitable empanelled training providers,” a senior official said.

Moreover, students from inaccessible places such as Malkangiri can register themselves through the website and not only get the training, but also finds a job,” the official said.

Those candidates, who are from remote areas and facing difficulties in registering themselves, can approach the respective employment officers in their localities to get their doubts clarified.
