Nasscom says Donald Trump’s order on H1-B visa based on misinformation

Pune: IT industry body Nasscom said that US President Donald Trump’s executive order on preventing federal agencies from using H-1B visa holders appeared to be based on misinformation and misperceptions. The new executive order, “Aligning Federal Contracting and Hiring Practices with the Interests of American Workers” signed on Monday recommends a review of federal contracting practices and the H-1B visa program in general rather than mandating an immediate change.
