No dating allowance at Wipro ??

Nov 24, 2006 The Workplace

Saw a “howlarious” article in ET about Wipro having to deny that it’s employees got a “dating allowance” from the company.

Apparently, Azim Premji and the HR dept head, Pratik Kumar were issued a summons by a Kanpur court when a Wipro employee’s wife, one Tripti Nigam, alleged that her husband was not spending time with her or even visiting her in Kanpur, as the company was giving him a dating allowance !!!

So….. This turns out to be NOTHING BUT PURE BLACKMAIL FROM THE WIFE

An ICON figure, a start performer in the Indian software Industry and Indian who made India Proud around the globe, has been sullied by an irate wife !!

Is this where India is heading to ?

Is this the geneder equality we are all waiting for ?

498A is ONE OF THE MOST MISUSED sections of Law

Why are we NOT SCRAPPING THIS LAW TOTALLY from the Law books ?

What will the developed world think of us ?

Is this Democracy or is it YOUNG WIVES GONE CRAZY ??
