Distress migration in Balangir is a cause of concern for
everybody and it can be tackled by taking a series of steps, including
sensitising the people, streamlining the migration process, and upgrading the
skills of unemployed boys and girls by imparting them various vocational
trainings like tailoring, mason work, motorcycle repairing, dress designing and
plumbing.
“Migration cannot be
stopped totally from the district but it can be streamlined and reduced by
sensitising people about migration and its impact and by providing them extra
job opportunities by imparting them various life skill vocational training,
which can be employable. Once a youth acquires a life skill vocational
training, he would hesitate to go for brick making and face the ordeal,”
observed Pradeep Mahapta of Udyaam at a workshop on a district level workshop
on adverse impact of migration and distribution of vocational training
certificates to youth, held at Titilagarh on Wednesday last.
With the completion of
the training, the youth would be able to become self dependent and hesitant to
go for migration. Even if they would go for migration, it would provide them
additional opportunities to earn more both in local and outside States,
observed Titilagarh Sub Collector Biswanath Sahu in the workshop.
Balangir correspondent
of The Pioneer, Sudhir Mishra, spoke about drought and distress migration in
the district and stressed on streamlining the process of migration. As the
youth have acquired life skill vocational training, they would become self
reliant, which would help slow down migration further, Mishra asserted.
Titilagarh Sub Collector Sahu, Udyaam president Kannanbala Das and activist
Padreep Mahapatra gave away vocational training certificates and equipment to
the rural boys and girls. Murali Charan Das proposed vote of thanks.
