Reservation in Central Government Services for SC/ST employees
Reservation in Central Government Services for SC/ST employees
The below information was submitted by the Minister of Personnel, Public
Grievances and Pensions and Minister of State in the Prime Minister's
Office Shri.V.Narayanasamy in Lok Sabha in a written reply to a question
about the reservation policy of Central Government on 27th February,
2013.
Reservation in Central Government jobs for SC/ST employees is provided
at the rate of 15% and 7.5%, respectively, in all Groups in promotion by
non-selection method and upto the lowest rung of Group A in promotion
by selection method.
The Department related Parliamentary Standing Committee on Personnel,
Public Grievances, Law & Justice in its report in the year 2005,
while examining the Scheduled Castes, Scheduled Tribes and Other
Backward Classes (Reservation in Posts and Services), Bill 2004, in its
report on the issue of whether OBCs should be given reservation in
promotions like SCs/ STs, observed that to meet the constitutional
obligation to provide adequate representation to these classes,
Government should consider extending reservation to the members of other
backward classes in promotions also and bring an amendment to the
Constitution to give effect to this proposal.
The Group of Ministers on the Bill considered the recommendations of the
Parliamentary Standing Committee for Personnel and felt that the
condition of OBCs is very different from that of the SCs/STs both in
terms of Constitutional provisions as well as ground realities.
