Mumbai MBA graduate denied job for being a Muslim
Mumbai, May 21 (IBNS) In a glaring case of religious discrimination, a Mumbai-based diamond export company has allegedly rejected a man's job application for being a Muslim, media reports say.
MBA graduate Zeshan Ali Khan mailed his resume to Hari Krishna Exports and in reply, they said they hire only non-Muslim candidates.
Zeshan shared his experience on his Facebook page, which immediately raised outrage.
"Prime Minister Narendra Modi talks about inclusive growth, but companies are dealing like this. If I was not qualified enough, I should have been told accordingly," Zeeshan told CNN-IBN.
Reports quoted the company as saying that the E-mail was sent erroneously by a new employee who was still training. The company said it does not discriminate against candidates based on religion.
