FJCCI president Pravin Jain Chhabra said, “During the meeting, we gave a free hand to the associations representing different sectors of the economy for imposing restrictions for a few days and some of them are even considering going for it. Even small efforts to break the virus chain are welcome.”

Jharkhand government’s plan to reserve 75% jobs for locals in the private sector
RANCHI: The state government’s plan to reserve 75% jobs for locals in the private sector has evoked a mixed response from Jharkhand Inc with many saying that even if the move has a noble objective of addressing unemployment, it could pose problems for industrial growth and investments if such a law is enacted without proper skilling of the workforce.
To fulfil its poll promise, the Jharkhand cabinet on Friday decided to reserve jobs for locals in private firms for up to a salary of Rs 30,000. A formal bill will soon be placed in the state assembly.

To fulfil its poll promise, the Jharkhand government on Friday decided to reserve jobs with a monthly salary of Rs 30,000 in private firms for locals. A formal bill will soon be placed in the assembly.
The move follows a similar one made by the BJP-led government in Haryana, which recently reserved 75% jobs for its residents. The decision was severely criticised by the Confederation of Indian Industry (CII), which had asked it to reconsider its decision. CII’s local unit in Jharkhand gave a similar reaction when asked to comment on the cabinet decision.
