The Karnataka government's decision to reserve jobs for locals has created a stir, with tech giants like Google and Intel affected. Find out more about this contentious move!

The recent job reservation bill in Karnataka has stirred up a heated debate, particularly in the tech industry. The bill proposed by the state government mandates companies to allocate 50%-70% of jobs to locals, causing concerns among major tech players like Google and Intel. Siddaramaiah, the brain behind the bill, has faced backlash from Nasscom over the potential negative impact on the tech sector’s growth.

This move by Karnataka follows the footsteps of Andhra Pradesh and another state in introducing local job quotas in the private sector. The bill passed by the Congress Cabinet aims to prioritize local candidates, especially in the IT industry, for employment opportunities.

In response to growing concerns, DK Shivakumar has reassured investors about the bill's implications, particularly focusing on 100% reservation for Kannadigas in Group C and D posts in the private sector, indicating a significant shift in local employment policies.

The Karnataka government has temporarily halted the implementation of the controversial job reservation bill in light of the industry's criticism. This pause reflects the ongoing tension between the government's push for local hiring policies and the concerns raised by various stakeholders.
