US Court Claims Cognizant Favoured H-1B Holders Over Non-Indian Works, Firm to Appeal
==========

A US court found Cognizant Technology Solutions guilty of discriminating against non-Indian workers, stating the firm exploited H-1B visa loopholes to favor South Asians; the ruling requires Cognizant to compensate affected employees. Cognizant plans to appeal the decision, asserting its commitment to equal employment opportunities. The lawsuit was initiated by three Caucasian employees who claimed unfair treatment and replacement by Indian workers. Cognizant had the highest number of H-1B visas among US employers from 2013 to 2019. The ruling may lead to stricter visa approval processes for foreign workers, following recent reforms to the H-1B lottery system aimed at reducing abuse.
