EVEN as the J&K government proceeds with recruitment for vacant posts while awaiting Lt Governor's approval for cabinet proposal to rationalise the existing policy, pressure is mounting to halt recruitments until reservations are revised to ensure fair representation of Open Merit (OM) candidates in the selection process.
The unease stems from recent recruitment advertisements that leave less than 40% posts for aspirants from OM category. Of the 10 Assistant Professor posts advertised at GMC Anantnag and Baramulla, only two have been earmarked for OM quota. Eight are reserved for categories.
Similarly, of the 502 posts of Constable (Telecommunication) advertised by J&K Service Selection Board, only 201 have been left for OM and 301 for different reserved categories.
