<h1>AI Matchmaking Platform Sets 50 Lakh Salary Rule for Private Men, Exempts Class 1 Government Officers</h1> An AI-powered matchmaking platform implemented a policy requiring private-sector male users to have an annual salary of at least 50 lakh, while exempting Class 1 government officers such as IAS, IPS, and IRS from this salary threshold. The platform justified this exception by emphasizing the stability, respect, and leadership associated with these government roles, despite their typically lower salaries compared to private-sector benchmarks. This policy adjustment has sparked debate over alleged preferential treatment for public sector employees versus recognition of their societal value. The platform maintains the salary criterion for private-sector men but acknowledges government officers' unique career attributes as meeting the platform's standards for matchmaking eligibility.
