SC/ST posts not filled up in Railways, says panel
Thu, Mar 11 10:51 PM
Expressing dismay that large number of Group C and Group D posts meant
for Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes have not been filled up in
railways, a Parliamentary committee on Thursday asked the ministry
concerned to make concerted efforts to fill the vacancies.
"It is a matter of great concern that the vacancies of 61 SCs and 73
STs in Group C and 121 STs in Group D during the year 2009 are still
to be filled up and no serious effort seems to have been made for
clearance of vacancies reserved for SCs/STs," the report, submitted by
the committee on Welfare of Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes,
said.
The committee, headed by Gobinda Chandra Naskar, in its latest report
has impressed upon the Railway Ministry to make credible and concerted
efforts so that vacancies reserved for SC/ST are not carried forward.
The committee has also noted that not a single SC/ST official has been
selected to the posts of Vigilance Inspector/Investiga
in South Western Railway.
The committee, therefore, recommends while appointing incumbents for
these posts, SC/ST employees having the requisite qualifications
should not be ignored just because there is no reservation but should
be given fair opportunity to occupy such posts on ex-cadre tenure
basis.
The committee said despite a well placed method of recruitment adopted
by the Railway Ministry and South Western Railway, the desired
results, especially in the matter of recruitment of sufficient number
of SCs/STs in Group C and Group D posts, have not been achieved.
