Re: [AI] No fundamental right to claim reservation, State not bound to provide reservation in promotion: SC

2020-02-08 Thread Himanshu Sahu
Initially after reading the subject line, I thought that this seems
another twist in the matter of reservation for PWDs...
But while going through the entire text, I conclude that this
judgement does not relate to the latest larger bench judgement of SC
pronounced on 14th Jan 2020, which upholds that reservation in
promotion for PWDs is permitted.

Thanks Kanchan for sharing. Will take it to the attention of ECI. 

Can you also ask members of the group to mention their booth number and name so 
that it will be easy for election officials to address the grievance. 

 

With regard to candidate list, it is also available in PWD app apart from the 
braille candidate sheet at polling booths. Vaishnavi had also shared an 
Accessible link for candidate list in the social media.

Dear all,

My wife and I voted in the Delhi state election. The crowds were significantly 
less as compared to those in the general election. It was easy to  feel the 
dots on the electronic voting machine. 
Issues:
1. My wife is a magnification user and had a hard time reading the list of 
candidates.
2. I was not offered a list of candidates in Braille. I failed to ask for one.
3. The EVM booth is dark therefore my wife had a hard time seeing the numbers 
next to the buttons.

Highlights: Article 16 (4) and (4-A) (reservation in promotion) is
clear which mean inadequacy of representation is a matter within
subjective satisfaction
of State State can form its own opinion on the basis of material
through a Commission or Committee, person or authority The data to be
collected is only
to justify reservation in appointment or promotion to public posts
Data collection on inadequate representation of SC/STs is a pre
requisite and is not
required when the state government decided not to provide reservations

In a significant judgement, the Supreme Court on Friday said an
individual cannot claim reservation as a fundamental right and the
government is not bound
to provide quota in promotion for the Scheduled Caste and Scheduled
Tribe employees in public jobs.

A bench of Justices L Nageswara Rao and Hemant Gupta said Articles 16
(4) and 16 (4-A) of the Constitution empowered the State to make
reservation in matters
of appointment and promotion in favour of the Scheduled Castes and
Scheduled Tribes “if in its opinion, they are not adequately
represented in the services”.

The top court said it was for the state government to decide whether
reservations were required in the matter of appointment and promotions
to public posts.

“In view of the law laid down by this court, there is no doubt that
the state government is not bound to make reservations. There is no
fundamental right
which inheres in an individual to claim reservation in promotions. No
mandamus can be issued by the court directing the state government to
provide reservations,”
the bench held.

The top court relied upon the Constitution bench judgements in Indra
Sawhney (1992), M Nagaraj (2006) and Jarnail Singh (2018) and Suresh
Chand Gautam
(2016) cases, among others, to set aside the Uttarakhand HC's
directions issued on July 15, 2019 to the state government to
implement reservations in promotion.

The HC's direction for filling up all future vacancies in post of
Assistant Engineers in PWD from the members of SC/STs was “wholly
unjustifiable”, it
said.

The bench found the HC's direction to collect quantifiable data was
“wholly unnecessary”, since the state government took a conscious
decision not to provide
reservation in promotions.

The court said since the State was not bound to provide reservations
in promotions, it was not required to justify its decision on the
basis of quantifiable
data, showing adequate representation of members of the Scheduled
Castes and Schedules Tribes in its services.

“Even if the under-representation of Scheduled Castes and Schedules
Tribes in public services is brought to the notice of this court, no
mandamus can be
issued to the state government to provide reservation,” it said.

 Subject: Judgment on reservation in promotion

 
 Dear friends!

 Warm greetings from New York.

 I am pasting at the bottom of this letter recent supreme court judgment
 in
 word format  dated 14th January, 2020  pronounced by the Hon’ble supreme
 court of India in Sidaraju Vs. the State of Karnataka which is
 self-explanatory.

 Kudos to the learned counsel Mr. Rajan Mani and also to the learned
 counsel of Mr. Sidaraju and to others, if any, who have played a genuine
 role in obtaining such a landmark judgment of the Hon’ble supreme court.

 You may recall in this context that I had mentioned about this judgment
 just two three days back in one of my posts on this list.

 With warm regards,

 Prasanna Kumar Pincha.

[AI] IELTS coaching for the visually impaired

2020-02-08 Thread shadabhsn
Hi Friends,

 

Wanted to know about the International English Language Test System (IELTS)
coaching.

 

1.  Which online coaching would be the best from the standpoint of
accessibility?

 

2.  What limitations we as visually impaired might face in going through
the course content?

 

3.  Any issues while taking the exam?

 

Please throw some light on this query because it would be very useful for
me.

 

Also, if anyone of us has applied for this coaching, can you please share
your experience?

 

Sincerely waiting for your valuable answers.

 

Heartfelt thanks in advance.

 

Your friend

Thanks Kanchan for sharing. Will take it to the attention of ECI. 

Can you also ask members of the group to mention their booth number and name so 
that it will be easy for election officials to address the grievance. 

 

With regard to candidate list, it is also available in PWD app apart from the 
braille candidate sheet at polling booths. Vaishnavi had also shared an 
Accessible link for candidate list in the social media.

Dear all,

My wife and I voted in the Delhi state election. The crowds were
significantly less as compared to those in the general election. It was easy
to  feel the dots on the electronic voting machine. 
Issues:
1. My wife is a magnification user and had a hard time reading the list of
candidates.
2. I was not offered a list of candidates in Braille. I failed to ask for
one.
3. The EVM booth is dark therefore my wife had a hard time seeing the
numbers next to the buttons.

Pranav
