Legal action against companies?

Hi All,
I have done my graduation (B.C.A) through distance education mode. I have around 6 years of IT experience (Software Development). Due to my distance education, I am not even getting a chance to attend interviews in most of the companies. What happens is, companies send interview call letter and when they come to know that I have done graduation through distance education, they say not to come, since we do not take such candidates. Due to my family background, I was forced to continue my education through distance mode. Is it a sin to do education through distance mode? Universities say, we award same degree to regular as well as distance education students. I want to take legal action against such kind of companies. Is there any provision for this in Indian law?

Thanks in advance.

Amit

No provision to compel anyone to give job to you. Try government companies

you are saying you have 6 years of experience. so are you emplyed now? you are talking about moving to higher paying jobs?

leaving emotions aside, put yourself in their shoe and think.

will you have justification if you were HR of that company.

learn English and etiquette before you enter forums like these

working at MNC does not mean you can talk crap the way you wrote your first para and insults in penultimate para.

i would recommend removing your membership for being obnoxiuos.

read your lines yourself.

I do not know why Prof...VLV is becoming so rough and tough against Amit Kumar. Sh. Amit is extremely polite and nothing wrong in his querry. The multi nationals put their foot in our land and try to impose their laws in India. What Amit saying is totally correct. The differential treatment between the distance education and regular university education should not be there while giving the employment. The reason of differential treatment is for the sole reason that the students come out of distance education have poor back ground or not in a position to put up in metropolitan cities and spend thousands of rupees and compete with convent educated students to get admission in universitities. The ill-treatment they face in their own country by foreign companies has to be understood. Those poor boys should not be brow-beaten by threatening them of "recommend to remove your membership" "learn etiquette' "learn proper english".

Mr. Amit,

The employers have no right of hiring and firing. But this right you cannot achieve by filing Public Interest Litigation. For achieving this objective, you have to build up mass movement with the people suffering like you. The MNCs always prefer the MBAs from Ahmedabad (who spend not less than 15 lakhs to get their degree, it is for their knowledge or for the title, every one knows) and from such elite educational institutions and go there and offer jobs on the campus with fanfare and offer lakhs of rupees as PAY PACKAGE. It is not talent hunt. But it is their own show. We have to put up with them, till we achiev real independence to our country.
