OHRC recommends state govt to ensure 1% transgender reservation in recruitment exams
Odisha Human Rights Commission has recommended a 1% reservation for transgender candidates in state recruitment exams. This follows a petition highlighting the exclusion of the 'third gender/transgender' category from application forms, violating fundamental rights to equality and non-discrimination. The commission urged immediate inclusion in forms and a 15-day extension for the OCS exam.
