The All Tribal Students Union Manipur (ATSUM) has expressed its grief over the latest orders issued in the name of the Governor of Manipur on December 7 with regard to the appointment of civil services.
"The said appointment reflected serious discrepancy and discriminatory procedure which violated the government notification number 9/1/91-DP(ST/SC) Manipur Reservation of vacancies in posts and service (for SC/ST) rules, 2011 dated 17-5-2011 and the schedule-1, i.e.Method of Recruitment by direct recruitment model roster of 200 points," the ATSUM in its memorandum submitted to the chief minister of Manipur said.
The tribal student body also terms it as 'a matter of wilful discrimination against the interest of the Scheduled Tribe candidates in the appointment and promotion' .
The ATSUM memorandum alleged that the government orders of December 7 has also violated that notification by Manipur Gazette-Extraordinary of March 6, 2012, 2-Amendment of rule 4 (2) and (3) of Junior Manipur Civil Services Rules, 2007 of clause (3) which states-the post of junior MCS (Sr Grade) shall be class-1 Gazette and the post of Junior MCS (Jr Grade) shall be class-II Gazette.
ATSUM said it had earlier reminded the demand for justice in the said reservation for SC/ST on appointment and promotion in the point number 2 of memorandum to the chief minister on November 27, 2012 .
"In the light of the above facts and circumstances, we earnestly beseech your high office to kindly intervene in this serious matter for dispense of justice once and for all.
