Nagaland CM Asks Patience for Job Reservation Review
The government in Nagaland is looking at how jobs are given out, especially to different groups of people.
The Chief Minister is asking everyone to wait because the review will take time.
Some tribal groups want the review to be fair and have asked that certain groups are not included in the commission looking at the jobs.
They feel the current system, which has been around since 1977, needs to be updated to reflect how things are today.
The groups are hoping for a fair and transparent process for everyone.
Nagaland CM urges patience regarding the review of job reservation policy.
The government plans to constitute a commission to review the current job reservation policy.
The 5-Tribes Committee on Revision of Reservation Policy (CORRP) demands exclusion of CSOs from the commission.
CORRP criticized the lack of progress since their June 3 meeting with the government.
The review push intensified after the tribes submitted a joint memorandum to the state government.
