JAMMU:The Jammu and Kashmir Administrative Council on Thursday granted four per cent reservation to Pahari speaking people in direct recruitment and admission and distribution of seats in professional institutions at the postgraduate level.
The decision is seen to rationalise the existing reservation policy after the erstwhile state’s special status was abrogated and it was bifurcated into union territories on August 5 last year.
The decision was taken at an administrative council meeting, which met under the chairmanship of Lieutenant Governor G C Murmu, he said. (AGENCIES)
