Assessment
of equivalence of employees
It is a
fact that evaluation of the equivalent or comparable posts in public sector
undertakings, Banks, Insurance companies, Universities, private employment
vis-à-vis Government posts could not be established so far. However, the extant
instructions of Department of Personnel and Training dated 8.9.1993 read with
instructions of 14.10.2004 provide that till such time the equivalence of
comparable posts in such organizations vis-à-vis Government posts are
established, the criteria of income/wealth test shall apply to determine their
creamy layer status.
The
benefit of reservation is not available to the candidates who fall in creamy
layer. However, as per the extant instructions, the sons and daughters of
persons employed in public sector undertakings, Banks, Insurance companies,
Universities, private employment etc. having income of upto Rs.6 lakhs either
from salary or from other sources would fall in non-creamy layer and would be
eligible to get the benefits of reservation under Other Backward Class (OBC)
category.
This
was stated by the Minister of State in the Ministry of Personnel, Public
Grievances and Pensions and Minister of State in the Prime Minister’s Office
Dr. Jitendra Singh in a written reply to a question by Shri Vishambhar Prasad
Nishad, Smt. Chhaya Verma and Ch. Sukhram Singh Yadav in the Rajya Sabha today.
