Union Government is studying the equivalence of posts in Central jobs for Other Backward Classes (OBC) recruitment.
According to Social Justice Minister Virendra Kumar, the Union government is considering a proposal to determine the equivalence of posts in State government PSUs vis-a-vis Central government posts for recruitment under the OBC reservation (non-creamy layer).
The Minister said this while responding to a starred question from Congress MP Dean Kuriakose.
The government was questioned by Congress MP Dean Kuriakose regarding its intentions to resolve problems encountered by OBC employees’ wards in state government PSUs.
Mr. Kumar said State Governments are already empowered to draw their own equivalence of posts between State PSUs and State Government posts.
In 2017, the Union Government had brought out equivalence of posts in Central PSUs, Banking and Financial Institutions and posts in Central government.
