The Punjab and Haryana High Court quashed a law passed by the Haryana government in 2020 that provided 75% reservation in private jobs to residents of the state.
A government cannot discriminate against individuals simply because they do not belong to that state.
The Haryana State Employment of Local Candidates Act, 2020 is to be violative of Part III of the Constitution.
The Act reserved 75% of jobs in the private sector that offered a monthly salary of less than Rs 30,000 (originally Rs 50,000) for residents of Haryana.
