Pradhan on de-reservation in faculty appointments
Addressing the controversy surrounding de-reservation in faculty appointments, Union Education Minister Pradhan outlined the clarity provided by the Central Educational Institutions (Reservation in Teachers' Cadre) Act 2019. He asserted that the Act eliminates any ambiguity in faculty appointments, making it explicit that no institute has the authority to de-reserve a faculty seat. Pradhan highlighted that prior to 2019, there was no mandatory provision for maintaining the roster, and the Act has brought about a decisive change in this regard.
'No seat can be de-reserved'
Stressing the unalterable nature of the roster under the 2019 Act, he stated that there is no room for tampering or de-reservation in the appointment of faculty. Describing the Act as a formal and decisive initiative, Pradhan credited the government for ensuring that no faculty seat can be de-reserved, showcasing a commitment to the welfare of marginalized sections of society.
