GV Selvam marks birthday with job fair in Chennai
A job fair jointly organised by Thalaimurai Peravai and Equitas marked the birthday celebrations of GV Selvam, vice-president of VIT, in Chennai on Saturday, 10 October. The event aimed to connect job seekers with employers, focusing on employment generation and youth empowerment, according to a press note from VIT.
Retired IPS officer M Ravi urged youngsters to embrace ethics and continuous learning. In his address, Selvam highlighted a mismatch between the demand for skilled labour and available opportunities, advising youth to keep upgrading their skills. The Hindu reports that more than 2,000 participants and over 100 companies attended the fair, which was also held in Vellore.
Indian Opinion Analysis
Both dtnext and The Hindu report the same event in near-identical wire-copy style, leading with the job fair and Selvam's remarks about skills mismatch. Neither outlet frames the event critically or with political slant, the coverage is uniform straight reporting. The differing participant figures (dtnext does not give a number, The Hindu gives over 2,000) reflect only editorial choices on what to include, not a stance difference. The story remains a routine report on a private university official's charitable event, with no wider political or regulatory implications stated in either source.
