BPO and IT growth in Kolkata

Why there is no growth in IT in West Bengal and TCS is the Monopoly in BPS and IT in Kolkata. When will this situation change?

Never, with no support from the west bengal government and all the violence happening in and around the state . Companies are reluctant to open offices in kolkata . Also they have better options like Bangalore,Hyderabad,Pune,Gurugram and developing cities like Mysuru,Chennai,Noida,Indore . With so many options available with better infrstructure and public transport why would any company choose Kolkata. Agree or disagree . CPI and TC have ruined WB and Kolkata is loosing its charm

The state systematically destroyed all work culture. 10 Years is one generation. If one gen is lost, than the next gen has to work twice hard just catchup with the quality of life two gens before. Life in this state has been in particular decline, from 1960's. That's 6 generations of decline. This decline cannot be reversed. Any People with entrepreneurial mindset have left decades before. You know the situation as dire when government doesn't/cannot invest in the state. This is not a dying state but a dead state.

Even the culture is little laid back there hence service companies also don’t get good projects

Should government give basic necessities to laid off citizens?

While Indian government reaps and enjoys the taxation of high paid IT jobs, there are hardly any responsibility in taking care of laid off citizens. I’m pretty sure most high paid individuals are irritated with the 10s of lacs of tax paid every year and yet not getting basic benefits from the government. No wonder so many HNIs leave India every year and settle in nations where high earning is nurtured and not abused. In my honest opinion, Indian government should do the following for laid off individuals based on their previous year tax collected. 1. Provide Rent + Basic necessities cost for at least 6 months or joining the next job, whichever is earlier. 2. Provide health insurance to laid off citizen and dependent individuals for at least 1 year or till the person joins next job, whichever is earlier. 3. Pause Home loan EMIs for at least 6 months or till the person joins next job, whichever is earlier.

A sweeper gets paid 25k/month at railway. Why service based company pay the same to a fresher ?

Why do educated graduates are paid the same as a sweeper of railway ? Why do service based company do this , do they think freshers are as worthy as a sweeper ? This is a genuine question, most of the service based companies earn in billions why they choose to pay shit to a hard working student who just got a job ? This is so unfair. I feel they are just taking advantage of them.

Your take on news about companies moving to Gujarat from Mumbai.

1. Good for Mumbai because the city can breathe. 2. Can the cities build a cosmopolitan culture like Mumbai? Will people from Mumbai move? 3. Bad news for Mumbai's economy. 4. Such news is common before the election season. 5. It's all a ploy from the ruling government to prop up Gujarat as the hub of everything.
