 Hello everyone, welcome to NewsClick. On the daily roundup, we discuss some of the most important stories that we report about at NewsClick. In the biggest story of the day, we look at the controversy surrounding the report on the unemployment data collected by the NSSO. According to a story published in today's business standard, the survey has reported the unemployment rate at a four-decade high, standing tall at 6.1% in 2017-18. In fact, the survey has some extremely troubling markers that are being withheld by the Modi-led BJP government at the center. And looking at this graph where there is a big surge in the joblessness, one can understand the government's attempt at suppressing this disappointing performance review of the government, which was supposed to bring a chidin for the people. Instead, it ended up destabilizing the economy like never before with its masterstroke demonetization. It was the resignation of the two independent members of the National Statistical Commission that blew the lid of this cowardly attempt of the government, which is trying to put a veil on the ground reality ahead of the elections. The national capital at this point is in the middle of a nine-day protest where right from members of the civil society, ex-servicemen, farmers, students and various leaders of different movements have joined hands against the anti-people policy of the Narendra Modi government. The protesters will be raising a spate of issues during their agitation, including unemployment, fund cuts in education, attacks on the higher education, massive agrarian crisis, dismantling of public sector banks, and rise in hate crimes in the country. My name is Hannaan Mollah. I am the general secretary of all India's farmers. We have three groups of farmers, an anti-fascist group of farmers and a team of young people. We are organizing this fight today. This is the slogan of Jai Joaan, Jai Kisan, Jai Nao Joaan, Jai Sangvidhan and United India. This is the basis of our slogan. And in this, all our supporters are coming here every single day. Our 18th year of demand is the demand of the labourer, the farmer, the student, the youth, the women, the 1st and 20th year of demand is the demand of the Dalit, the Chhatra and the youth. With this 18th year of demand, we have been here for nine days. Members from several students and teachers' organizations have also been protesting in Delhi against a 13-point roster system introduced in the universities. It has been termed as a casteist exclusionary roster which is likely to reduce reservation for the SC, ST and OBC candidates. The protesters are demanding that the centre pass an ordinance to do away with the 13-point roster and reintroduce the 200-point roster. Do take a look at our ground report. Last year, Alabad High Court had shut down the 200-point roster in a petition judgment. After that, a case took place in the Supreme Court. Even there, the judgment of Alabad High Court was upholded. In the meantime, Duta and the Dalit and Bhaujan societies developed and developed and M.H.R.D. promised the delegation of Duta that they will bring an ordinance or a bill to undo the decision of the Supreme Court. After that, we are confident that the government is going to do this. After that, the government filed an SLP and said that if nothing happens in the SLP, we will bring an ordinance. We waited. After the Supreme Court has removed the SLP, the government has gone silent. It does not want to bring an ordinance or a bill. If the 200-point roster is removed and the department-wise roster is formed, we believe that the SC, ST and OBC will have to get rid of the big organization. They will have to go to their jobs. We think that this will be a huge shock from the perspective of the entire society. And the society will have to push back. Thank you very much.
