The Haryana Governor has approved a bill that reserves 75 percent of the jobs in private sector with gross salary up to ₹ 50,000 per month for the locals, as informed by the Deputy Chief Minister – Dushyant Chautala. The state assembly has passed the legislation last year.
Speaking to reporters, the Deputy Chief Minister said, “This is the day of great happiness for the youth of the state. The youths of the state now will get 75 per cent reservation in private sector jobs, they will get reservation in every company, society and trust.”
This announcement comes three days before the Haryana budget session. The bill includes all the registered companies, societies, trusts, firms with more than ten employees.
The bill also contains a clause that will allow companies to hire people from other states if they are not able to find suitable candidates locally. In this case, the respective company will have to inform the authority before hiring an outsider.
The impact of this law is most likely to be witnessed in Gurgaon, the MNC market of India, which is home to number of big companies.
