UNION Cabinet has approved the proposal for promulgation of the Central Educational Institutions (Reservation in Teachers’ Cadre) Ordinance, 2019. The Ordinance will ensure that the Constitutional provisions of reservation for Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes and the socially and educationally backward classes in the faculty recruitment will be protected.
It will also ensure that the current impasse in the recruitment will be resolved. This will also ensure that the process of recruitment of faculty is resumed and the vacancies are filled up.
The decision will allow filling up of more than five thousand vacancies by direct recruitment in Teachers cadre. This decision is also expected to improve teaching standards in the higher educational institutions to attract all eligible talented candidates.
