The All Naga Students’ Association, Manipur (ANSAM) has raised serious allegations against the National Sports University (NSU) Imphal stating that NSU Imphal violated reservation norms in its recent admission notification, despite being reminded to strictly adhere to the reservation policy outlined in the 2012 Amendment Act.
It called on the Vice-Chancellor of the National Sports University (NSU), Prof. Usha S. Nair and expressed its concerns over the “irregularities” and served an ultimatum to rectify the same on or before July 31, 2024, as per the rule of law.
According to the Central Institutes (Reservations in Admission) Amendment Act, 2012, the reservation percentage is reserved 2% for SC, 31% for ST and 17% for OBC. The same reservation act was validated by High Court of Manipur and the Supreme Court for implementation in the Central Institutes of Manipur. But, he recently declared result has allocated 15% for SC, 7.5% for ST and 27% for OBC violating the actual reservation norms, said ANSAM.
It said that all admissions procedures should be suspended until the issue was resolved.
ANSAM also submitted a representation to Chief Minister N Biren Singh and the Chairman of Hill Areas Committee (HAC) Diganglung Gangmei for prompt implementation of the reservation norms in admission to the Central Institutes operating in the state as per the Central Institutes (Reservations in Admission) Amendment Act, 2012.
“ANSAM is perturbed by the continuous moribund state of affairs in the Education System in Manipur reeling under problems of manipulation and violations leading to resentment, agitations, social chaos and vices; to which the Competent authority of the state and the country must take an onus to solve the problem for the ends of justice. The Association will not accept unless the actual reservation policy is strictly followed in accordance to the parliament Act for admission to various courses in the Central Universities,” said the Naga student body.
