Pune: Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) is facing serious allegations of sexual harassment of female employees and attempts at forced religious conversion at its Nashik centre. Police have arrested some company officials in connection with the case, bringing the issue into sharp public focus.

The controversy has deepened after an IT employees’ union claimed that a detailed complaint about alleged malpractices at TCS was submitted to Labour Minister Akash Phundkar nearly six months ago. The union said the complaint included evidence, but no action was taken at the time.

According to the union, the lack of timely intervention allowed the situation to escalate. The matter came to light only in March, when allegations related to the Nashik centre surfaced publicly.

Over the past year, TCS has also faced complaints related to employee layoffs. Workers alleged that they were forced to resign and subjected to unfair treatment. There were also reports claiming that some female employees on maternity leave were abruptly terminated.
