New Delhi: The Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs) will implement the first phase of reservation for the Other Backward Classes (OBCs) from the 2007-08 academic session.
The Directors of the IITs made this clear to the Union Human Resource Minister Arjun Singh at a meeting in his office here on Monday.
The institutes are to implement nine per cent reservation each year as per the roadmap drawn by the Veerappa Moily committee in the next three academic sessions. “In the first year (2007-08) there seems to be no difficulty in implementing but they have some requirements for the next two years which will be addressed,” Mr. Singh told reporters after the meeting. The difficulties pertained to space, building and additional staff.
