"Who will win today?" Well, you definitely won't. . . . . Salaried employees, especially the techies, are the ones paying the most amount of taxes. For people like me, 3-4 month of salary directly goes to the government. Now, let's see how important we are to the governments. During the election campaigns, no party promised anything for us. No relaxation in taxes, no talks about labour laws, no job security, no talks about improving education system. In the last few years, there have been so many layoffs and most of the layoffs weren't due to employee's performance. Companies have laid off employees for no reason at all. While severance was given in some cases, some companies have forced employees to resign. Is it ethical? Did the government interevene? This year, so many companies have revoked their offers. First students were promised job opportunity and when they accept the offer and reject other potential offers they were getting, their offers are revoked. Revoking students' offers around the end of their course increases the stress on them and leaving them unemployed atleast until they find a job on their own. Neither the company, nor the university is willing to do anything for them. Is it ethical? Did the government intervene? Companies like TCS, Wipro, Infosys, etc. have been paying similar salaries to students for the last 15 years. Apparantely you are immune to inflation if you join them. As an employee, they will get 20K/month after spending lacs in their education. It it ethical? Did the government intervene? Studnets have to spend lacs on their education because government seats are very limited and even the government colleges are getting more and more expensive. It it ethical? Did the government intervene? Taxation in India is so high. Through various forms, government is extracting money from the salaried middle class : Income tax, GST, Road Taxes, Capital gains tax, etc. Inflation keeps getting higher but the exemption limits don't change, the tax slabs don't change. Many ways through which the salaried employees could have saved taxes are being discontinued or the limits are being reduced. If your company fires you, there is no government but if somehow you get another job after putting in a lot of hard work, you again have to pay taxes. Is it ethical? Did the government intervene. In the end, I just want to share that no matter who wins the election today. You and me will always be the losers. You and me are the ones who are honestly contributing to the growth of this nation but the government of this nations simply don't care about us. Never have, never will. Jai Hind!
