Dear friends,
I appeared for SBI PO exam a few years ago and to my utter surprise,
the invigilator said that the scribe should not have obtained more
than 50% marks in his +2 exam. No such thing was mentioned in any of
the papers they had sent alongwith the admit card. The invigilator
after much persuasion, let me sit for the exam but said I would be
disqualified.
Regards,
Sandeep

Subject: [AI] Arbitrary policy
Friends
I came to know that SBI, in its recently concluded exam for
clerical posts, is forging new grounds when it comes to permitting
scribes to blind candidates.
Despite declaring in advertisement that scribe having up to 60%
marks and one grade junior than minimum qualifying criteria for
candidate, it only allowed scribes having passed tenth standard and
not even eleventh though minimum eligibility was twelfth pass for candidates.
They also insisted on ID proof of the scribe apart from mark lists
etc. though nothing to that effect is mentioned in advertisement or
documents accompanying hall ticket.
Now, it is the very presumption that a blind candidate would be
indulging in cheating by resorting to undue assistance by scribe
which affronts my dignity as a blind person.
I as a blind person am hampered by abusive safeguards in exercising
my legal capacity for writing the exam with the help of scribe.
Any safeguards ought to be meant to prevent abuse.
So, now it is high time that some drastic actions are taken to have
in place a proper scribe policy.
Maharashtra HC guidelines with some modifications are gathering
dust In the ministries for more that two years. This is an issue
which primarily concerns blind and vision impaired. It marginally
affects other disabilities. So, blind leadership, which already has
brought itself into disgust by playing a pivotal role in having
these conditionality's for scribe in the first place, will have to
be jolted to take up fruitful action.
