    Javadekar announces additional OBC quota for National Talent Search Examination

    The National Talent Search Examination Stage-II conducted by NCERT will feature reservations for students belonging to the other backward classes (OBC), Human Resource Development Minister Prakash Javadekar has announced. The OBC reservation would be in addition to quotas for schedule caste (SC), scheduled tribes (ST) and physically handicapped (PH) students. The OBC quota will apply from 2019 as the 2018 exam proceedings have started.

    What is the National Talent Search Examination exam?
