Haryana: Exams for hiring state government positions

Haryana: Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini said today that his government was considering filing a review petition in the supreme court or introducing a bill in the Vidhan Sabha. This was reportedly an attempt to backpedal after the Supreme Court upheld an order from the Punjab and Haryana High Court on May 31, which had invalidated the Haryana government’s policy of giving its residents extra marks in recruitment exams for government jobs.

Intended to help underqualified applicants
The foundation of our socioeconomic policy is the idea of “antyodaya.” The poor’s rights are being fought for by our administration. We will introduce a bill in the Vidhan Sabha if necessary. The Chief Minister, Nayab Singh Saini.

Speaking to the media here, Saini stated, “We respect the Supreme Court verdict.” He further mentioned that the BJP administration had instituted a program in 2018 to provide extra points to candidates who were from underprivileged, weak, and impoverished backgrounds.

“The foundation of our socioeconomic policy is the ‘antyodaya’ concept. The poor’s rights are being fought for by our administration. We will introduce a bill in the Vidhan Sabha if necessary, he said.

Judges Abhay S. Oka and Rajesh Bindal’s Vacation Bench described the government’s policy as a “populist measure” and declined to intervene in the high court’s ruling that the socioeconomic standards the Haryana government had established to give preference to particular candidate classes for government jobs were unconstitutional.

The socioeconomic criteria were instituted by the government several years ago with the intention of awarding bonus points to specific categories of applicants, such as those who did not have a family member employed by the government, were state-domiciled, and had an annual family income of no more than Rs 1.8 lakh.

The Haryana Staff Selection Commission (HSSC) appealed the high court’s decision to abolish the policy of adding five percent bonus points to the total percentage of marks in the CET for Group C and D posts based on the candidate’s socioeconomic status as a state resident. The appeal was being heard by the apex court.

By granting a five percent weighting in marks, it declared that no state may limit employment to only its own citizens. It also stated, “The respondents (state government) have created an artificial classification to the similarly situated candidates applying for the post.”

In the meantime, the Congress referred to the BJP government’s policies as “anti-employment” today in response to the Supreme Court’s ruling. Bhupinder Singh Hooda, the Leader of the Opposition, claimed that young people without jobs had been duped by the government under the guise of the Common Entrance Test (CET). The government purposefully created “weak” hiring regulations that would not hold up in court. He asserted that the ruling by the supreme court would negatively affect more than 23,000 government hiring opportunities.

The HSSC and the Saini government, according to party general secretary Randeep Surjewala, are tampering with the futures of thousands of applicants seeking government employment. He went on to say that thousands of recruitments made under the strategy would now wind up in court, leaving young people behind.
