of the on-going year, Kochi registered highest job generation growth of over 30 per cent during the period. The number of jobs in the city increased from over 1,500 in January-June this year to over 2,000 between July- December 15.
Agra (14 per cent), Ajmer (12 per cent), Udaipur (10 per cent), Kota (seven per cent), Kanpur (five per cent), Vellore (five per cent) and Jalandhar (four per cent) were other cities that registered upward spiralling growth in job generation during the second half of the year.
Employment generation growth rate in India declined by about 15 per cent between July-December 15 as against a decline of over 25 per cent during the first six months of the year, said Rawat.
"This change is presumably due to slew of positive steps taken by the government during this period," he added.
