The Nitish Kumar government has taken a big decision where it has done away with reservation in promotion for SC/ST.

Nitish Kumar government has taken the decision making the Patna High Court as a base.

It may be mentioned here that the Patna High Court last year cancelled the reservation for SC/ST in promotion and passed the orders that the promotion policy will be same for everyone and will not be done on caste basis.

However, already promoted employees will not face any difficulties and the new orders will be applicable in the organizations where the promotion process has not began yet.

The move came after Susheel Kumar and others raised objection over the reservation policy in the promotion.
