It has been decided that admission in elementary classes including pre- primary classes shall be done through draw of lots if number of candidates seeking admission to a class is more than the number of seats available for admission. At first a general draw of lots from amongst all applicants praying for admission irrespective of category viz. SC,ST,OBC A ,OBC B etc is to be done to select the unreserved candidates. Thereafter a series of draw of lots from the leftover applications are to be arranged category wise to fill up the reserved seats.
CATEGORY WISE PERCENTAGES OF RESERVED SEATS ARE AS BELOW
Scheduled Caste 22percent, Scheduled Tribe 6percent, OBC A 10percent, OBC B 7percent and children with Special Need 3percent.
It may be mentioned here in this connection that if seats reserved for SC remain unfulfilled by SC candidates they may be filled by ST candidates and viceversa. However, after completion of the aforesaid exercise if more seats are available which could not be filled up due to non - availability of SC or ST candidates they should be taken in the unreserved pool. Moreover seats meant of OBC A and OBC B candidates, if could not be filled up due to non- availability of OBC A and OBC B candidates , will also be taken in the unreserved pool. Such unreserved seats shall be filled by candidates as per norm. For this a waiting list may be maintained in the first draw of lots.
Children seeking admission for pre primary class shall be 5 years of age or above and below 6 years as on First January of each year. All children of age group 6 to14 years shall be admitted to their age appropriate classes.
