Earlier, most techies failed to take part in voting due to their work based in Hyderabad but now the situation is different.They are keeping a close watch on the electioneering for the two seats (Hyderabad-Rangareddy-Mahabubnagar and Khammam-Nalgonda-Warangal) that will go to the polls on March 14.He noted that apart from B.Tech youngsters pursuing technical courses also have high hopes from the IT sector.Those working in the IT sector also have many issues to be addressed and appealed to the MLC candidates in the poll fray to raise their issues once they win the election in the Upper House (Council).
Efforts should be made to bring in IT companies to tier II and tier III cities, the TITA chief said.Numerous professionals such as drivers, security, housekeeping and others get employed directly or indirectly in IT sector.
Decentralised development of IT firms will bring bright prospects for the youth in town and districts, Makthala added.
