Industry body Ficci on Thursday said the Haryana government's new legislation that provides reservation in private jobs for local candidates will "spell disaster" for industrial development in the state.
Ficci President Uday Shankar said the government's move to reserve 75 per cent jobs for the local population in private sector will spell disaster for the industrial development and private investment in the state.
"Investors and entrepreneurs need to source the best human resources available in the country to be competitive and successful. To force them in such a regressive straight-jacket will force them to look beyond Haryana and this will ultimately hurt the interests of the state," Shankar said.
