Question 3 of 3
3. Question
Consider the following
1.First other Backward Commission : Kaka Kalelkar
2.Second Other Backward Commission : B P Mandal
3.Commission on Sub-categorisation of OBC’s : Justice G Rohini
How many pairs given above match correctly?
Correct
Answer: (C)
Explanation:
Two OBC Commissions
FIRST OBC COMMISSION: The panel, headed by Kaka Kalelkar, was constituted by Jawaharlal Nehru’s government on January 29, 1953, and submitted its report on March 30, 1955. To identify socially and educationally backward classes, the commission adopted the following criteria: low social position in the traditional caste hierarchy of Hindu society; lack of general educational advancement among the major section of the caste/ community; inadequate or no representation in government service; and inadequate representation in trade, commerce and industry.
SECOND OBC COMMISSION: This was the B P Mandal Commission, which was appointed in 1979 by Morarji Desai’s Janata government, but the implementation of which was announced only in 1990 by the government of V P Singh.
The Mandal Commission identified 3,743 castes and communities as OBCs, estimated their population at 52%, and recommended 27% reservation in government jobs and admissions to all government-run scientific, technical, and professional institutions.
No subcategories were recognised within the 27% OBC quota, even though one of the members, L R Naik, said in his dissent that OBCs should be split into intermediate backward classes and depressed backward classes.
Subcategories in states
Over the decades, state governments have applied their own criteria to distribute quota benefits among the various categories of OBCs, a process that began well before the Mandal recommendations were implemented at the Centre.
They include Andhra Pradesh,Telangana, Karnataka, west Bengal, Maharashtra, Tamil Nadu, Kerala, Uttar Pradesh.
On March 2, 2015, the NCBC, then headed by Justice (retd) V Eswaraiah, suggested that OBCs should be subcategorised into Extremely Backward Classes, More Backward Classes, and Backward Classes.
The recommendation was not implemented and, in October 2017, a new commission for subcategorisation of OBCs was constituted under Justice G Rohini. The Rohini Commission submitted its report on July 31 this year, but its contents are not public.
