The petitioner said that this law is actually a violation of the rights of skilled youth. The Act, which came into force on March 2, 2021, and the notification dated November 6, 2021, to reserve 75 per cent of jobs, is against the provisions of the Constitution, Sovereignty.
The Punjab-Haryana High Court has issued a notice to the state government on a petition challenging the provision of making 75 percent reservation mandatory for local residents in private sector jobs in Haryana, asking why it should not be banned.
The petitioner, Faridabad Industrial Association, told the High Court that people are selected in the private sector on the basis of qualifications and skills. If the right to choose the employee is taken away from the employers then how will the industry progress. Haryana government’s decision of 75 percent reservation is injustice to the deserving people. This law is a violation of the constitutional rights of those youth who are free to work in any part of India on the basis of their education and qualification.
The petitioner said that this law is an attempt to introduce the system of getting jobs in the private sector on the basis of accommodation in lieu of qualification. If this happens, a situation of anarchy will arise in Haryana regarding employment in the private sector. This law will also hinder the development of the private sector and due to this, industry may start exodus from the state.
