The talents of the younger generation should be used effectively in the industries and commerce sector, Industries Minister P. Rajeeve has said.
He was speaking after inaugurating the two-day Yuva Boot Camp organised by the Industries department and the Kerala Institute for Entrepreneurship and Development.
Mr. Rajeeve said the State government's projects to transform young job seekers into job givers were attaining fruition. The several startups emerging from the college campuses were a sign of this. The government also planned to start various clubs in educational institutions to promote entrepreneurship, he said.

An expo of products manufactured by the entrepreneurs and sessions on student and youth entrepreneurship are being organised as part of the camp. Finance Minister K.N.
