Amaravati, August 2025 – The Government of Andhra Pradesh is set to revolutionize employment access across the state with the launch of Naipunyam, a first-of-its-kind digital platform connecting skilled job seekers with corporate employers. Scheduled to go live on September 1, 2025, this initiative is a key part of the state’s roadmap to create 20 lakh (2 million) jobs in the next five years.
🎯 What Is Naipunyam?
Naipunyam is a job matching and employment facilitation portal designed especially for blue-collar, skilled, and semi-skilled workers. Acting as a bridge between talent and opportunity, it will operate like a digital employment exchange with modern features tailored to both job seekers and employers.
⚙️ Key Features
