Friends
I am pleased to inform you that in response to my mail dated March 6, 2012, RBI
has deleted 11 pass as requirement for scribe for forthcoming assistants exam,
and has kept the qualification as one grade junior.
Here are amended guidelines along with past correspondence on the matter.
The blind/ low vision candidates and candidates who are locomotor impaired in
both hands and both arms and candidates whose writing speed is affected by
cerebral palsy can use own scribe/ writer at his/her own cost. In all such
cases where a scribe/writer is used, the following rules will apply:
(i)The candidate will have to arrange his/her own scribe/writer at his/her cost.
(ii)The academic qualification of the Scribe/writer must be one grade lower
than the minimum stipulated eligibility criteria for the candidate.
(iii)The scribe can be from any academic discipline
(iv)Both the candidate as well as the scribe/writer will have to give a
suitable undertaking, confirming that the scribe fulfils all the stipulated
eligibility criteria for a scribe as mentioned above. Further, in case it later
transpires that he/she did not fulfill any of the laid-down eligibility
criteria or suppressed material facts, the candidature of the applicant will
stand cancelled, irrespective of the result of the Written Test.
(v)Such candidates who use a scribe/writer shall be eligible for extra time of
20 minutes for every hour of the examination.

Subject: Writer guidelines for assistants recruitment
Madam / Sir
Recently RBI has advertised posts of assistants, reserving vacancies for
persons with disabilities including blind/low vision, as mandated by law.
The minimum qualification for applying for the said posts is degree in any
discipline.
However, while prescribing the eligibility of the scribe to be taken by
blind/low vision candidates at the time of exam, it is stipulated that the
scribe should be one grade junior than the stipulated qualification for the
candidate and should be 11th class pass. I am quoting the relevant para:
"(ii)The academic qualification of the Scribe/writer must be one grade lower
than the minimum stipulated eligibility criteria for the candidate (11th
standard or below).
This would have made perfect sense, had the minimum eligibility criteria for
the post in question been twelfth. But it is graduation, and you would
appreciate that the one grade junior in that case means the scribe can be
twelfth pass or even an undergraduate student.
One grade junior has been specifically interpreted by Hon'ble Bombay high court
to mean one year junior.
I can furnish the required supporting documents, if required.
It is the practice followed by a host of examination and recruitment bodies to
permit a scribe who is at least one year junior than the candidate.
So, I sincerely request you to kindly issue a corrigendum, clarifying the
position of the bank on the said issue, for the benefit of numerous disabled
candidates wishing to compete for the said posts.
Further, the date of the exam for the assistants posts is April 29, 2012, which
conflicts with that for the men exam for GRB direct recruit.
There are a few candidates who are competing for both the exams and they would
be unduly precluded from at least one.
Given that the same institution is holding both the tests, it would be in the
fitness of things that the dates are suitably revised.
I do hope to receive the answer.
With thanks and regards
