The Union Cabinet has approved the extension of the term of Commission to examine the issue of Sub-categorization of Other Backward Classes (OBCs) in the Central List for six months beyond 30th November 2018 and till 31st May 2019.
About:
The Commission, headed by Justice (Retd.) G. Rohini was constituted under Article 340 of the Constitution with the approval of President in October, 2017.
The Commission has since then interacted with all the States/UTs which have subcategorized OBCs and the State Backward Classes Commissions.
As of now, the commission has obtained records, caste-wise data of OBCs admitted to higher educational institutions as well as similar caste-wise data of recruits in Central government departments, Central public sector undertakings, public sector banks and financial institutions.
Keeping in view the voluminous data obtained and the time required for a scientific analysis of the data, the term of the Commission has been extended. This is the fourth extension of term given to the commission formed in October 2017.
