Infosys mass layoffs: Fired trainees denied overnight stay on campus, left scrambling for shelter

IT giant Infosys is facing sharp criticism after dismissing around 400 trainees at its Mysuru campus for allegedly failing internal evaluations.

However, the company has come under fire for forcibly evicting them on the same day, even denying requests for an overnight stay. A Moneycontrol report detailed the ordeal of trainees let go on February 7, highlighting the abrupt nature of their removal.

One of the dismissed trainees, a woman from Madhya Pradesh, tearfully pleaded with officials, saying, “Please let me stay the night. I will leave tomorrow. Where will I go right now?”
