After Andhra Pradesh, the Ashok Gehlot government in Rajasthan is also
planning to grant 75 per cent reservations for locals in private sector
jobs.
The Gehlot government is contemplating providing job
reservations for people of the state in big industries who have been
given certain benefits by the state government in terms of financial
package.
Also, projects running under pubic private partnership
and small industries will employ the local residents under the scheme,
confirmed official sources.
Speaking in this context, state
Industries Minister Parsadi Lal Meena said that "when other states are
doing the same, why can't we take a decision for the benefit of our
youth."
"In Gujarat, Maharashtra and West Bengal, the competitive
exams have one paper in local language which benefits the local
residents. Here, we never discriminate among people on basis of where
they have come, but at the same time, we are also planning to provide
reservations in private sector to benefit our youth. However, the final
decision shall be taken after discussion with other members."
A
high level meeting has been called at the secretariat on September 19 to
discuss the issue. The representatives of industries have also been
called for the meeting.
However, officials said that there are
many challenges being seen in the initiative as in most cases, hiring is
done on pan-India basis. And reservation can also pose a threat to the
talent pool.
Also, this decision of the Gehlot government shall
impact a major chunk of people from Bihar and West Bengal who are
working here in the private sector. Apart from providing reservations to
the local people, the government will also decide the guidelines for
the minimum salary and the private sector will pay salaries to the local
people according to the guidelines.
Hence a major discussion will be held on this.
Meanwhile,
Congress leaders confirmed that this can be a masterstroke for the
Gehlot government looking at panchayat and civic unit elections and can
benefit the party.
