'We hire only Non-Muslim candidates' Indian Muslim job applicant allegedly rejected over his religion.



Within 15 minutes of sending an application for a position at Mumbai-based Hare Krishna Exports, recent MBA graduate Zeshan Ali Khan reportedly received a rejection based on religious grounds. According to Khan, he was denied employment in a brief e-mail that said the company only hires "non-Muslim candidates". Although the company expressed regret and blamed the message on a human resourcestrainee, Mumbai authorities are investigating a complaint filed by Khan to determine whether Krishna Exports broke the law by offending "religious sentiments".
