Affirmative action a must: PM
Agencies Posted: May 27, 2010 at 0902 hrs
New Delhi The pressure on India Inc is increasing over affirmative
action, a.k.a. reservation or quota, in private sector jobs, with
almost no politician, including PM Manmohan Singh willing to let go of
an opportunity where they can bring up the subject.
Prime Minister Manmohan Singh today asked the country's industry
leaders, including Ratan Tata and Mukesh Ambani, to reach out to the
rural economy and help the government on food security and affirmative
action.
The corporate honchos raised concerns about the possible impact of the
European financial crisis on the Indian economy.
Singh reviewed the state of economy with Tata, Ambani, Azim Premji,
Sunil Bharti Mittal, Swati Piramal, Chanda Kocchar, Deepak Parekh,
Keshub Mahindra and Kiran Majumdar Shaw at the first meeting of the
newly constituted Prime Minister's Council on Trade and Industry.
The Prime Minister asked them to form sub-groups on food security,
public-private- partnership, backward area development and corporate
social responsibility.
