Quotas in the teaching faculty of IITs

The government has ordered IITs to introduce - with "immediate effect" - quotas in the teaching faculty for scheduled castes, scheduled tribes and OBCs. Do you thing that the decision is in the interest of country?

Niceguy251 says: It may be done without lowering the standards of selection criteria and if vacancy is not filled it should not be rolled over to next session but reverted to general category as shortage of faculty will definitely affect teaching quality and standards adversly।


Lp says: I am against this quota system in toto। Abolish caste based schemes. Introduce meritocracy


Vamsi says: are these new faculty from the SC reservations "able enough" to teach in the IITs and IIMs ? if not then giving them jobs on the basis of reservations would be highly unfortunate।


Skj says:i think we all try to follow the easier route whatsover the problem। I strongly condemn Govt's announcement but at the same time, have we ever tried to understand as to why Bhim Rao Ambedkar started this and provisioned it as must। Well, its a matter of debate covering many many aspects so its not possible to just say yes or no।cheers
