India's opposition Congress party has called on Prime Minister Narendra Modi's government to question Foxconn about its discriminatory hiring practices, specifically targeting married women for iPhone assembly jobs in Tamil Nadu. Debate surrounding the issue has led to calls for investigation from various groups, including within Modi's party, to ensure Foxconn complies with Indian laws and values.
