Deemed varsities rally behind Arjun on quota
New Delhi: The Government on Thursday got a shot in the arm as major private universities in the country unanimously agreed to implement its proposed reservation policy for students from the Other Backward Classes (OBCs).
The Vice-Chancellors of the eight unaided universities, who had a meeting with HRD Minister Arjun Singh Here, are believed to have conveyed their unanimous decision to him.
The details of the reservation policy for the private institutions are yet to be worked out.
However, the promise given by the institutions, including the Birla Institute of Technology, Pilani, Manipal University and Symbiosis Institute of Management that they would implement the reservation policy would bring relief to the Government as it has been struggling to implement the OBC quota policy.
