Excellent idea to have such a national portal, will facilitate employment matching skill. Pre-requisite is to devise aptitude tests with the help of experts. Also there is need to educate parents about various career lines open and identifying tastes/liking of their children at early stage, letting them pursue studies accordingly (Theme of the film '3 Idiots'). athose inclined to be Scientists need special encouragement, weaning them away from the rat-race of becoming engineer or doctors only.

Part VI - We from deep-south Tamil Nadu learnt at our Grandmother’s lap go across the seas earn your wealth and return. In ancient times Tamils became transnational, seafarers Tamil Nadu became transit point for trade, commerce between China, Far East countries to Rome in West; Today 30 Mn Tamils live in 50 countries. In North India crossing sea was forbidden limiting their mobility. After 1980, Middle East construction artisan opportunities were grabbed with both hands by all Indians.

Part V – Those in Metropolitan cities, rural farmers have found it impossible to get artisan for house repairs and for farm cultivation harvest etc, this being a matter of fact, Rs. 60,000Crs MNREGA put money in politicians, official’s pockets rather than benefit the needy and poor. The move to restrict both schemes to 200 districts, provide cash deposit in lieu of Free-bees to JANA-DHAN-YOJANA commendable. In Rajasthan, Kerosene allocation crashed to 15% on ADHAR identification requirement.

Part IV – 67 years Socialism created dependents, parasites society; incentive to work; dignity of labor were lost; Free-bees Food security, MNREGA 100 days work security etc need identified specified locations; rest of period job are limited to local availability. In UP, Bihar, Bengal there are no jobs; have to move to Maharashtra, Gujarat, Tamil Nadu etc to secure jobs. Once you do that all Free-bees are denied. Mobility to go where the opportunities exist got muted to aspirant’s disadvantage.

The institutes (govt or non govt) should have Service Rule Audit every year, on every appointment/promotion. If this had been done there would have been no chance of Yadav Singh happening.A person appointed/promoted to do corruption will do corruption only. A big chunk of piled up cases in courts are pertaining to job anomalies. courts could have been saved at least this burden.

Local service providers should include Lawyers, Doctors also with regulated fee as well as licensed household helps (to eliminate child labour), full time nurse . The service providing should be feed back based. Any one getting below standard feedback more than thrice should be out of work and the complaints regarding faltering service should be handled by the ombudsman may be a retired judge on a time bound manner.

5- Good number of Geospatial Experts who specialise in geospatial technology and form the “pyramid top”. These are basically BTech/MTech in Geomatics/GIS Science etc from the University systems.

3- Geospatial skilled work-force – a category of large number of human resources required for meeting the “pyramid-base” as the large work-force for survey/mapping/ GIS operators etc. This requirement can be met by more professional training through special training programmes. 4- Technical Geospatial Professionals - large number of geospatial professionals who have specific training and knowledge for specific tasks – these form the “pyramid middle”.
