Parliamentarians for quota in pvt sector for SC, ST
New Delhi, Mar 4 (PTI) Several Parliamentarians today supported the demand of providing reservation to members of Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes in the private sector but said proper education is the key to the progress of the two groups.
“There is need to intensify the movement to get reservation in private sector (jobs),” CPI (M) politburo member Brinda Karat said supporting the demand.
Karat said there was no development in the issue even as the government said it constituted a committee for this and several consultations were held with India Inc., who agreed affirmative action. However, nothing concrete has emerged from this, she lamented.
Speaking about the law enacted for the protection of SC and ST, she said it appeared good but “when we go deep, we find several loopholes in them.
