Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Kamal Nath on Tuesday said that his government is considering bringing a law in private sector in the state which would ensure local youth to get jobs.
“Immediately after taking oath I had announced that industry will have to provide 70 per cent jobs to local youths but I was criticised. People from Bihar and Uttar Pradesh criticised us politically. Some people even said that they will move the court,’’ Nath responded, during Question Hour, to a question related to restrictions on outsiders appearing in competitive examinations conducted by the State Services Commission.
