AIIMS ambiguous on quota backlog
The All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) has been
furnishing ambiguous replies in response to RTI applications on the
vacant reserved category posts backlog.
In an answer to a query in August 2011, the institute said there was
no backlog of vacant posts for SC, ST and other backward classes. But
in a October 2011 reply, the institute has admitted that there are 93
backlog posts for SC, ST and OBCs which are vacant.
The institute, in an advertisement for the posts of assistant
professors, did not take into account the backlog of vacant seats. It
had advertised for 102 posts of assistant professors of which 57 were
in the unreserved category, 33 were reserved for other backward
classes, 10 were reserved for SC and two were reserved for ST.
Doctors from a group called Forum for Rights and Equality said even in
the advertisement the institute did not follow the reservation policy
properly since unreserved seats should have been around 53.
"While reservation for other backward classes is more than 27 per cent
, that for SC and STs is less than their quota for 15 per cent and 7.5
per cent respectively. If one is to believe that OBC number is more
due to implementation of backlog, then what about SC and ST backlog.
Has it been done to deny them quota benefit?" a member of the forum
asked.
The forum has written to the National Commission for Scheduled Castes
and Scheduled Tribes on this.
