Additionally, the candidate must be capable of speaking, reading, and writing Kannada legibly and must have passed a required test conducted by a nodal agency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Criteria Include:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Secondary school certificate with Kannada as a language<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Passing a Kannada proficiency test, as specified by the nodal agency<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Training and Relaxations<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>If qualified local candidates are not available, industries and establishments are required to collaborate with the government to train local candidates within three years. The bill allows for relaxation of these provisions if an industry or establishment cannot find sufficient local candidates. Such requests for relaxation must be submitted to the government, which will conduct an inquiry and pass appropriate orders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Penalties for Non-Compliance<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The legislation stipulates penalties for non-compliance, ranging from \u20b910,000 to \u20b925,000. However, even with relaxations, the percentage of local candidates should not fall below 25% in management positions and 50% in non-management categories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Background and Demand for Local Hiring<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The bill has been introduced amid longstanding demands for job reservations for Kannadigas. Earlier in July, Kannada organizations held rallies across Karnataka, advocating for the immediate implementation of the Sarojini Mahishi report, which recommended quotas for locals in both government and private sector jobs. The Sarojini Mahishi Committee, chaired by former union minister and the first woman MP from Karnataka, Sarojini Mahishi, submitted a report in 1984 with 58 recommendations, including 100% reservation for locals in group C and D jobs in Central government departments and PSUs operating in Karnataka.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Karnataka Cabinet has approved the Karnataka State Employment of Local Candidates in the Industries, Factories, and Other Establishments Bill, 2024.
