Addressable System (DAS) notified areas of Tamil Nadu.

The issue to grant of MSO registration to Arasu Cable, a State Government entity, is directly linked with the recommendations of Telecom Regularity Authority of India  (TRAI)  titled  'Issues  relating  to  entry  of  certain  entities  in  Broadcasting  and Distribution Activities' whereby State Government entities have not been allowed to enter into the broadcasting and distribution activities. The recommendations of TRAI are under the consideration of Inter-Ministerial Committee (IMC).

CAS was replaced with Digital Addressable System (DAS) in 2011 and all  those  MSOs  who  were  granted  registration  for  CAS  had  to  apply  for  deemed registration under Rule 11F of Cable Rules for operating in DAS notified areas. Fresh application for  DAS notified  areas  are  also being  received.  Arasu  Cable,  who  was granted provisional  registration  on  02.4.2008  for  operating  in  Chennai  during  CAS regime did not apply for deemed registration for DAS but sent fresh applications for operating in Chennai on 05.7.2012 and for rest of Tamil Nadu on 23.11.2012. Their applications will be processed on receipt of IMC recommendations. No Government entity has been granted MSO registration after receipt of applications for DAS from Arasu Cable. Total 1070 MSOs, including those in Tamil Nadu and other Southern States,  have  been  granted  registration  so  far.  The  lists  of  registered  MSOs  are available on Ministry's website at www.mib.nic.in.

## ANSWER

Minister of State in the Ministry of Personnel, Public Grievances and Pensions and Minister of State in the Prime Minister's Office. (DR. JITENDRA SINGH)

At present, reservation for persons with disabilities in direct recruitment is available in Group A and B posts.

Presently,  3%  reservation  for persons with disabilities are computed on the  basis of total number of vacancies occurring in direct recruitment quota in Group A and B and 3% of the  vacancies  occurring  in  direct  recruitment  and  promotion  in  Group  C  and  Group  D (wherever Group D posts are still available in the respective cadre).

Para  15  of  the  Office  Memorandum  No.  36035/3/2004-Estt.(Res)  dated  29.12.2005 provided that all establishments shall maintain Group-wise reservation roster for determining/effecting  reservation  for  persons  with  disabilities  for  direct  recruitment  and promotion separately. However, this Office Memorandum has been quashed by the Hon'ble Supreme Court in  its Judgment dated 30.06.2016  in  Writ Petition (Civil) No. 521 of 2008 titled Rajeev Kumar Gupta Vs. Union of India, which inter-alia, directed the Government to extend three percent reservation to Persons with Disability in all identified posts in Group A and B, irrespective of the mode of filling up of such posts.  A Review Petition [(Civil) No. 3719 of 2016] has been filed in this matter in the Hon'ble Supreme Court.
