PRAGOTI

The Central Educational Institutions (CEI) Amendment Bill, 2010 was introduced in Rajyasabha on 6th August, 2010 with the objective of amending the CEI Act, 2006. The CEI Act, 2006 had provided for 27% reservation for OBCs in admission in Central Education Institutions along with a mandated seat increase of 54% over a maximum period of three years from the academic session commencing from the calendar year, 2007. However, the question that needs to be asked in the first place, is that why could not the mandatory reservation and 54% seat increase be implemented even after three years the CEI Act was passed?
