Nasscom urges govt to allow techies to work from home

The National Association of Software and Services Companies (Nasscom) has asked the government to relax norms for a month to allow work-from-home for technology and backoffice employees as a measure to deal with the spread of Covid-19 virus in India.

It has written a letter to the government saying that disruptions could lead to compliance challenges as Indian IT and BPO firms provide mission critical services for global clients.
