DERAILED JOBS | Latur youths allege bias in recruitment at Marathwada Rail Coach Factory; plan to send over 10,000 letters to Devendra Fadnavis

Alleging large-scale discrimination in recruitment at the Marathwada Rail Coach Factory in Latur, local youths have accused senior officials of deliberately denying jobs to locals despite government assurances. The issue has triggered anger among unemployed youths across the district, who plan to send over 10,000 letters to Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis demanding fair employment opportunities, NCP (SP) youth wing city district president Pravin Salunkhe told reporters.

Locals claim that although the government had allotted 350 acres of land for the project, the promise of jobs for local youths remains largely unfulfilled. Of the nearly 150 workers currently employed at the factory, only six are from Latur, while most recruits reportedly hail from Gujarat and other states. The NCP (SP) has submitted a memorandum to the District Collector, warning of strong agitation if the matter is ignored.
