More than 100 posts are lying vacant in 170 colleges
At present only 36 librarians are working out of 170 government colleges. In more than 110 remaining colleges, there is no librarian at present, instead of them teachers have to work with clerks. This is affecting studies in colleges.
In 2009, the Mayawati government had banned the recruitment of librarians.
Earlier, managers used to recruit librarians at their level, but on the orders of the Supreme Court, librarians are being given the salary fixed by the UGC from January 1, 1986. College management cannot appoint for UGC salaried posts. On May 13, 2009, the then government of UP had banned the appointment of librarians in these colleges.
After that in a cabinet meeting in November 2012, the Uttar Pradesh Higher Education Service Commission was given the responsibility of appointment, but since then the Higher Education Directorate neither sought requisition nor the process of appointment could be started.
When will the notification for recruitment be released?
Secretary Higher Education Service Commission, Vandana Tripathi said that due to non-receipt of the librarian from the Higher Education Directorate, the process of appointment could not be started. Once approved, the process will start.
