Siddaramaiah deletes social media post on Karnataka private jobs reservation amid severe backlash

Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah deleted a post stating that the state cabinet had approved a 100% quota for Kannadigas in Group C and Group D private sector jobs following criticism from industry leaders. Biocon's Kiran Mazumdar-Shaw expressed concerns that this move could undermine Bengaluru's status as a tech hub by restricting skilled talent recruitment.
