Merely changing labour laws won’t draw Apple and Co to India | Mint Primer | Mint

Join us as we delve into the recent labor law amendments in Tamil Nadu and Karnataka, two southern states in India, and explore their implications for workers, manufacturers, and the nation's quest for global manufacturing supremacy. The amendments, driven by global manufacturers like Apple, aimed to extend daily working hours but faced opposition and subsequent withdrawal in Tamil Nadu. The Congress Party criticized the BJP-led Karnataka government's anti-labor policies and pledged to repeal the amendments if elected. This video examines the impact of these legal shifts, highlights the disparity between organized and unorganized labor conditions, and discusses the challenges in attracting global manufacturers away from China. Discover why weaker labor protections may not be the solution and explore the key factors that states must focus on to attract investments and promote better compliance with labor-protection regulations. Don't miss this insightful analysis on India's journey towards achieving a robust manufacturing sector and creating a conducive environment for both workers and manufacturers.
