Domicile certificate of the state is going to be required in order to apply for government jobs in the state, which will make natives of other states unable to do seek state public sector jobs, as per a News18 report.
Coming before the soon-to-happen bypolls to 27 assembly seats, the move is seen as an attempt to pull more voters to keep Congress' Kamal Nath out of power.
Former CM Kamal Nath, who has been making every possible effort to return to government through bye elections, had in 2018 announced reserving 70 per cent of private sector jobs in the state for local youth.
