               One of the exclusive factors of prose literature –stories and dramas by Om Prakash Semwal is that the writer is of firm opinion that there are many opportunities in rural Garhwal in terms of wealth earning.  The ’Naukari ‘drama written by Om Prakash Semwal was staged in December, 1999 in a school of (Old) Chamoli Garhwal now, in Rudraprayag.

        The drama is aimed at young generation who is aspiring employment in cities and is dreaming for leaving the village. Mangtu is studying in tenth standard in village school. Mangtu’s father wants is married to a Kamgati girl (expert in agriculture works) after getting suitable job in city. The mother of Mangtu wishes that Mangtu is married to a rich family that their family get dowry. She is not worried about job for Mangtu.

      Nartu who is working in Delhi comes to village and assures his uncle that he will arrange best job for Mangtu in Delhi. Nartu takes his cousin Mangtu to Delhi for getting him best job. However, Mangtu is shocked to see the exploiting behavior of Nartu.

   The mini drama ’Naukari ‘is very simple and shows the exploitation of unskilled young man by all. The story and dialogues match with the situation of Garhwal.
