The Jharkhand High Court has temporarily stayed a law requiring 75% reservation for local candidates in private-sector jobs with salaries up to Rs 40,000. The petition, filed by the Jharkhand Small Scale Industries Association, claims the law violates equality principles. The next hearing is scheduled for March 20.
The Supreme Court today (6th Dec) has issued a notice regarding a petition seeking protections for Internal Complaints Committee (ICC) members in private companies against arbitrary actions and retaliation. The petition argues that the lack of safeguards violates constitutional rights and calls for ICC members to be classified as public servants, ensuring their independence and safety.
