Graduates Queue for Class V Home Guard Posts in Odisha

Many people with college degrees in Odisha, India, are lining up to apply for jobs as Class V Home Guards.

These government jobs are popular because they offer steady pay, security, and are seen as prestigious.

This is happening even though more people, especially women, are finding jobs in other areas like farming, fishing, and animals.

The leader of Odisha, Chief Minister Mohan Charan Majhi, has said that 30,032 government jobs have been created since his party came to power, and they plan to create 65,000 more jobs in the next two years.

People still prefer government jobs because they are seen as good for marriage prospects and provide a stable life.
