I agree with you friend. I feel no one but the candidate to admit the disability to the full extent. Example, a visually challenged if he wants to fake will do in all circumstances and even the doctor can’t find sometimes if the doctor asks to check how many fingers can you tell me? The fake person will tell wrong number and the doctor can’t do much than to give him the certificate. Many of the candidates are indeed taking over the opportunities ment for the real disabilities in India. Who can help in this regard? Only candidates themselves by educating them at the initial stages only. Best
From: [email protected] <[email protected]> On Behalf Of RAUSHAN KUMAR Sent: 10 December 2024 10:43 To: [email protected] Subject: [AI] Regarding fake Pwd certificates in government exams, re-examination of disability during document verification. CAUTION: This email is originated from outside Canara Bank. Do not click any links or open attachments unless you recognize the sender and know that the content is safe. Dear members of Accessindia, Most humbly and respectfully i would like to convey all of you and especially to the institutions and people who have direct role in guidelines and policy making for Pwd and who have access to government institutions. Here are some of the issues, while the first one may be easily solvable, the second one may be more complex and systemic, and requires long term thinking, and solutions which can be acceptable by everyone. 1. Fake medical certificate 2. Use of solvers as scribes in the exams.. I was surprised to know that there are many exam conducting bodies like SSC that do not re-verify the validity of pwd certificates through medical examination by competent institutes like AIIMS and other premier hospitals. The re-examination process has already been adopted by UPSC and railway recruitment boards; similar procedures can be implemented in all other exams in educational institutions too. The second issue is related to the first one and is very depressing. Let me put it in perspective, imagine three candidate 1. Genuine pwd candidate with scribe acting as assistant, 2. Genuine pwd candidate using solver as scribe and 3. Fake pwd candidate having fake certificate using solver scribe, Now we already had a discussion about the first and second one in an email thread, in which strict regulation for the second category leads to inconvenience and negative externalities for the first one, while it is difficult to solve. It is possible given that we have a digital identity like AADHAAR. One such step is currently being taken by SSC itself by making it compulsory for the scribe to create one time registration. Let's hope it will generate some positive outcome. Now, the third category who have a fake certificate, which means he is a normal candidate with all abilities, he is also assisted by a solver who has mastery over the subject and they also have the luxury of extra time. Now a paper designed for one normal person is being solved by two normal candidates with 33 percent extra time. Can we imagine what will be the result? In the final merit list cut offs are as high as obc and general category students. it screens out all the genuine candidates. And if somehow the exam conducting body is able to limit the ability of scribe of this third category student, even then he/she has an unfair advantage of 33 percent extra time. So, fake certification is a challenging problem faced by pwd seeking reservation in India today. So, I request all the stakeholders to help pwd candidates, by talking to concerned authorities in the government department and educational institutions. Here are a few suggestions. 1. Re-examination of candidates' extent of disability during document verification by all exam conduction bodies and educational institutions, like UPSC and railways does in reputed medical institutes like AIIMS. While it is necessary to fix both the supply and demand of certification, Fixing supply end can be a long term goal and requires an interdisciplinary approach involving doctors, Judiciary, NGO, and other government bodies. For immediate relief demand may be fixed by simple measures mentioned above. 2. Notification should be published regarding this by these bodies regarding the same, so that it discourages fake students from applying, 3. Waiting list for pwd candidate so that if someone is caught during final document verification, a genuine waiting list candidate is given the seat. 4. Streamline, the scribe one time registration process with more efficiency and reger. 5. Clarity in guidelines regarding the educational qualification. Sometimes the statement " the candidate's qualification should be one step below the candidate's qualification" becomes vague. For a graduate job, if a candidate has done graduation he/she can opt for a scribe who is 12th pass, but a candidate who has a masters degree can opt a graduate candidate, This should not be acceptable. It should be one step below the exam qualification of the exam. It would be great to know suggestions from all of you on this issue, and suggestions on how it can be reformed. Hoping for some positive response and outcome I am attaching a youtube video which opened my mind about the issues, while the video is full of anger and rage, I could not find any other source which is more civilised and in english language, extremely sorry for that.
