Kamal Nath's Comment On UP-Bihar Migrants And Jobs Upsets Akhilesh Yadav | Read

Just after taking charge as Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister, Kamal Nath has provoked a controversy with his comments on migrants from Uttar Pradesh and Bihar taking jobs in the state at the cost of its residents. The BJP has demanded Congress president Rahul Gandhi's apology for the comments and even the Samajwadi Party, an ally, is upset. "Lot of industries are set up in which take people from other states, like Uttar Pradesh and Bihar. I don't want to criticize them, but the young people of Madhya Pradesh remain deprived," Kamal Nath said, suggesting government incentives for industries who give 70 per cent of their jobs to people from the state.
