Was the post reserved for blind or only for low vision? If it was reserved for blind, then nobody can ask you to read newspapers. In case it was reserved only for low vision, we have to challenge such restrictive reservation, as the post of LDC has been identified suitable for blind/low vision vide list of identified jobs published by Central government in 2007, and state governments cannot take away from it. In any case, approach commissioner disabilities of your state, if you think she/he does any work, or else approach high court with a good advocate..
-----Original Message----- From: accessindia-boun...@accessindia.org.in [mailto:accessindia-boun...@accessindia.org.in] On Behalf Of sujith kumar Sent: Monday, April 02, 2012 2:07 PM To: accessindia Subject: [AI] Urgent help required regarding PSC's unfavourable decision Respected Access Indians, This is regarding the Complaint about Kerala PSC's Lower Division Clerk suitability test and rank list for PH I applied for the post of Lower Division Clerk in Thrissur district in Kerala PSC (Category no. 477/2010, gazette date 21/12/2010). As I am a partially blind person (90% disability), I requested for a scribe, and wrote the exam with the help of the scribe allowed for me. Due to the poor reading skills of the scribe in English and Maths, I was unable to attend many questions in the exam. Even though, I secured 35 marks in the exam and thereby attained a place in the special probability list for physically handicapped, published by the Thrissur District PSC office. As a result, I received a letter from Psc to attend the certificate verification and suitability test on 23/03/2012 in the District PSC office, Thrissur. PSC conducted the suitability test by way of giving news paper to read head lines. And I was asked to read some of the head lines with fond sizes not accessible for me and I failed to do it. At the time of suitability test I was informed that I was not eligible for the prescribed post due to my low eye sight. On 30.3.2012, KPSC published the rank list for the same with 28 partially blind persons and by avoiding 3 visually challenged persons from the short list. Thus, I have been denied the right to be in the rank list. If I will be in the rank list I will be in the 6th place among the 28 blind persons in the rank list. Now the marks of last candidate in the partially blind category in the rank list is minus 1. Even though I had acquired 35 marks, I was denied the place in the rank list and thereby also the job opportunity, because of my low eye sight. The recruitment is for the various departments of the Kerala Government, there are many vacancies. I would like to know whether is there any job other than clerical work under the lower division clerk category. If so, please do mention whether I am eligible for this job. So please provide me with the necessary guideline to follow in this regard. As the rank list has been already published on 30th march 2012, I expect speedy valuable responses from all respected members of this list.
