Reservation to Other Backward Classes (OBCs) in Central
Government services is provided at the rate of 27% in case of direct recruitment on
all India basis by open competition. In case of direct recruitment on
all India basis, other than by open competition, reservation for OBCs
is provided at the rate of 25.84%.
Representation
of OBCs is still low for the reason that reservation for them started
onlyin September, 1993. Moreover,
those OBCs recruited before 1993 have not shown themselves as OBCs since
the reservation was not available to them before 1993, and they were
recruited/ appointed as general candidates. There is
no reservation for OBCs in promotion.
Reservation to SCs in
Direct Recruitment is available since 1947.
Whereas, reservation for STs in direct recruitment was
introduced from 1950. The provision of reservation in promotion for
SCs/STs is available since 1955.
As per information
received from various Ministries/ Departments, the representation of SCs, STs
and OBCs in posts and services of the Central Government as on 1.1.2011 is as
