Newly appointed government recruits from Jammu and Gujarat expressed joy and gratitude after receiving appointment letters at the 19th Rozgar Mela held on Saturday, with many crediting their families’ support for helping them secure the positions. The event, part of the government’s nationwide recruitment drive, saw Prime Minister Narendra Modi distribute more than 51,000 appointment letters across various ministries and departments.

Several candidates shared emotional accounts of their journey, highlighting personal struggles and family encouragement behind their success. Aakriti from Jammu, who has been appointed as a Probationary Officer at the State Bank of India (SBI), said her mother, a single parent, played a crucial role in her preparation.
