The State government is not looking at any specifics whether the members of the expert committee to review the reservation policy should be from the State or outside.
“Looking at all aspects we are not closing into any specific that they should be from the State or outside,” said Chief Minister Conrad Sangma today.
He was speaking to media persons about the status of the search committee constituted to recommend members for the expert committee to review the reservation policy.
“I think the quality and the qualification of the individual and capacity of the individual will be the top criteria for us and then we will see if there is some balance that has to be made we will look into that aspect also,” Sangma said.
Informing that the chief secretary who also heads the three-member search committee has already briefed him of certain names that are coming up, Sangma said, “We want a very good panel of names so that we are able to come up with a good committee and a committee that would be balanced, neutral and independent in nature and be effective and qualified so that a proper report can be brought out.”
He also said the search committee has gone through several names to be included in the expert committee. “We expect that more and more names will come in,” he added.
