As we know, there have been massive job cuts in the IT sector. One of the reasons for this retrenchment is automation in IT industry. The global leaders, especially U.S, have started adopting a protectionist policy for their countries. As a result, they are also altering the way jobs are outsourced to India. The government has been depending on the US economy for job opportunities rather than building it in India itself.
