Any reservation for girls in JEE advanced?
- The 14 percent IIT reservation for girls will not affect or reduce the number of seats for male candidates. It has been suggested that supernumerary seats are to be filled in order to ensure 14 percent IIT reservation for girls. This means:
- Let us assume that an IIT has 100 seats.
- Based on the merit list of JEE Advanced 2018, say 8 girls and 92 boys are given admission to the institute.
- Now, as per the 14 percent IIT reservation for girls rule, 6 more girls are to be given admission.
- These 6 girls are selected from a separate girl only merit list.
- The number of boys given admission, i.e. 92 will, however, remain unchanged. So, there is no reduction in the number of seats for boys.
- The provision of admission to 6 more girls is additional to the existing number of admissions, thus, the admission being supernumerary in nature.
The percentage of seats reserved against different categories is given below:
Other Backward Classes (NCL) – 27%
Scheduled Caste (SC) – 15%
Scheduled Tribe (ST) – 7.5%
Persons with Disability (PwD) – 3% seats in each of OPEN, OBC-NCL, SC and ST category seats.
