I think its correct. it should not only be implemented in Maharashtra but all over indian in every state. Also those who are migrating should pay migration tax to the state they migrate. so that the state gets extra money to build more infrastructure. Also i would like to quote what DRGON said in the forum... he problem is that PPL FROM OTHER REGIONS do think SIMILARLY.... for eg the cm of karnataka said and i quote-------" if the it cos dont provide employment opportunities to the locals then v dont need them ".. this problem is everywhere in assam , northeast states, tibet ,usa and even in delhi... i think the locals should be given priorities everywhere be it bihar or maharashtra...the logic is simple--- when an industry is established----land is taken from the locals, the state govts provide incentives (which is from that of the taxpayers pocket and not from that of the migrant workers), if there is a pollution problem the locals hav 2 bear the brunt (the migrants can always return to their home state ), then isnt it logical to give "PREFERENCE" TO LOCALS ( I M NOT USING THE TERM RESERVATION).... THE PROBLEM AND MAYBE THE SOLUTION ALSO IS IN THE HUMAN NATURE---AND THIS PROBLEM IS OF UNIVERSAL NATURE..
