Kolkata: Jadavpur University has decided not to admit students under the OBC category this year, citing the ongoing Supreme Court case.The Calcutta High Court in May 2024 scrapped all new OBC categorisations in Bengal after 2010, saying the authorities "practised protective discrimination in deviation of constitutional norms".The SC is hearing the state govt's appeal.In 2024, JU had asked candidates admitted under the OBC-A and OBC-B categories to submit an undertaking on a non-judicial stamp paper, stating that their admission will be revoked if their OBC certificates become invalid in the future. The university has written to the higher education department but has not received any suggestion. Recently, a notice for the admission to the bachelor programme of library science course has been published where there is no provision for OBC reservation."We have taken the decision following legal advice," said an official.Meanwhile, the HC heard a PIL where it was pointed out that several universities were still following the reservation for OBC-A and OBC-B categories in violation of the May 2024 judgment, citing examples from JU. Calcutta University had also written to the higher education department seeking advice. But it too has not received any directive yet. St. Xavier's principal Fr. Dominic Savio said, "We have been having SC, ST and OBC category students from the beginning or from the time we got autonomy."
