Infosys Layoff Controversy Grows: Union Alleges Intimidation

The Infosys layoff of hundreds of freshers at its Mysuru campus has deepened into a major controversy. Employee union NITES now claims the number of terminations could be as high as 700, alleging Infosys used intimidation tactics, including security personnel, during the process. Employees further contend the company changed assessment criteria mid-evaluation, making it harder to pass. NITES is filing a Labour Ministry complaint, accusing Infosys of violating labor laws. Infosys defends its long-standing assessment process, but the situation threatens legal action and significant reputational damage.
