Career Opportunities in Ludhiana
A vast segment of migrants have moved to the central industrial pockets like Ludhiana District in order to have a lucrative employment. While a vast number of people have got the instantaneous employments, another great part is there that have a tendency to struggle hard for just for their endurance.
There are many small-scale industries and agriculture that a great population of Ludhiana depends upon. Government has also taken necessary action to develop the employability of the women at Ludhiana. Understanding the need to have a well-defined labor policy – especially for the women to receive some good deal of benefits, government has stepped forward to develop and strengthen the human-resource policy thereby improving the training facilities for the women.
An amazing collapse in the field of agriculture has been the serious reason of concern for not only Ludhiana but also the rest of the nation. Compared to the GDP growth rate, which is 8% the rate of growth in agriculture, is as low as 1.5% only in the last five years. This is a rather alarming situation and as the total earning from the agriculture is seriously suffering a huge set back.
Ludhiana city throws enough challenges for any citizen who is willing to do hard work and try his ideas, luck and mettle in this industrial city. Ludhiana has a long history of entrepreneurship. During the Mughal rule, Muslim weavers, who stitched clothes of the royalty, had made Ludhiana their headquarters. This historical background may have given a psychological fillip to the hosiery industry. In the past 30 years, Ludhiana businessmen working in the small, medium and large sector have turned the city into a pillar of hosiery, bicycle parts, autoparts, machine tools and sewing machines.
Ludhianvis are one of the most prosperous people in the country and their lifestyle has become a source of envy for the people living in the rest of Punjab and the neighbours states. Today, the Oswals, Munjals, Pahwas from Ludhiana have become household names in the country. The Ramgarhia community in the city is known for craftsmanship with the members being adept in making war weapons. Their craftsmanship is unparalleled in the country. It is commonly said that there is hardly any machine, which a Ramgarhia cannot copy. This community has made a great contribution to city's industry.
Recession or no, the city attracts entrepreneurs from all over the country and a good number of them are able to translate their dreams into reality. The city has many plus points. There is no labour shortage and there are hardly any organized labour unions. One rarely hears of strikes by workers. Many people feel that there is something in the city, that even unskilled workers from UP, Bihar and Orissa gradually become self-employed.
Mason work, carpentry, sanitary job and electricity work have been virtually taken over by migrants. To supplement their earnings, many migrants work in two places. There are many ward boys in local hospitals who also work as waiters in local clubs in the evening. They leave their home at 7 am and return as late as 1 pm. most of them are satisfied with the income they make. Some even earn up to Rs 10,000 a month.
A casual visit to a cinema theatre reveals that most of balconies are full of migrant workers. The city makes no differentiation of caste, creed and religion. Everyone believes in work and the money culture. No one wants to earn less than his brother, friend or neighbour. Everyone competes in making a spectacular display of a son’s or daughter’s marriage. Decorated expensive dowry cars are parked near the main entrance of marriage pandals. From the brand of car, you can assess the financial status of the party. There is a competition in acquiring the latest models of expensive cars. Work, earn, eat, drink and be merry seems to be the motto of the Ludhianvis. Gradually every newcomer becomes a part of the city culture and starts enjoying Ludhiana life. Any government officer who once comes to Ludhiana, gets so much attached that he loathes going to any other city.
From many angles, Ludhiana is a traditional city. The art of business is passed on from generation to generation. The amount of business knowledge, skill and common sense an average business family gives to its younger generation, no degree college and university education can give. At a very young age, children are exposed to the antics of business. That is why the city places fewer premiums on formal education.
Many MBAs, CAs and other professionals find it highly inconvenient to work under the local business community. They loathe their lala type mentality. Many industries are still run by old methods. For Ludhiana business, it is highly irrelevant whether the owner is educated or uneducated. What ultimately works or succeeds is important, and it is quite clear that till date the city businessman has the last laugh.
