US government ne Microsoft par H-1B aur Green Card fraud ke ilzaam lagaye hain. President Brad Smith ne warning di hai ki agar immigration rules sakht rahe, toh top AI talent milna mushkil ho jayega.
Regulatory ka chakkar
Microsoft aur US administration ke beech ab visa rules ko lekar seedhi takkar ho rahi hai. Sarkar ne company par H-1B aur Green Card process mein fraud ke ilzaam lagaye hain, jiske baad kuch employees ki permanent residency wali applications ko block kar diya gaya hai. Ye situation tech sector ke liye ek bada jhatka hai.
Brad Smith ka counter-attack
Microsoft ke President, Brad Smith ne in sabhi allegations ko nakara hai. Unka kehna hai ki sarkar hiring process ko samajhne mein galti kar rahi hai. Smith ke hisaab se, pending applications naye hires ki nahi, balki un purane employees ki hain jo bureaucracy ke backlog mein phanse hue hain. Company ne wage disparity ke ilzaamon ko bhi saaf mana kar diya hai.
Investors ke liye kya hai risk?
Sabse bada sawaal ye hai ki kya Microsoft apni AI ki race mein piche reh jayegi? Innovation ke liye company ko specialized engineers ki zaroorat hoti hai aur inka ek bada hissa immigrant talent hai. Agar visa rules aur sakht hue, toh company ki hiring cost ₹₹₹ badh sakti hai aur key AI projects mein deri ho sakti hai.
Balance banane ki koshish
Foreign talent par nirbharta kam dikhane ke liye, Microsoft ne bataya hai ki pichle saal unhone 9,000 se zyada US-born workers ko hire kiya hai. Halanki, ye debate dikhati hai ki global talent kitna zaroori hai. Investors ko ab management ki commentary par nazar rakhni chahiye, kyunki hiring speed aur operational expenses ka seedha asar stock performance par pad sakta hai.
