Madhya Pradesh (MP) Chief Minister (CM) Shivraj Singh Chouhan on Tuesday (18 August) announced that state government jobs will be reserved only for local residents, for which his government is going to take necessary steps.
Domicile certificate of the state is going to be required in order to apply for government jobs in the state, which will make natives of other states unable to do seek state public sector jobs, as per a News18 report.
Coming before the soon-to-happen bypolls to 27 assembly seats, the move is seen as an attempt to pull more voters to keep Congress' Kamal Nath out of power.
