IT/BT Minister Priyank Kharge on Tuesday expressed concern over women leaving the technology sector.

“Some estimates put women employee attrition in IT companies at 30-40% since December 2022 while the industry average is currently 15%,” Priyank said in a tweet. “There is a 1-1.5 percentage point dip in overall share of women in tech workforce as well. Quite worrisome. Women logging out of tech workforce is not good for us,” he said.
