The dark reality of PwDs reservation in Govt Jobs

I rather remain silent but the situation compelled me to burst out. So that someone might be helpful in coming days There are so many problems however, i would like to highlight a few Challenges that PwDs Jobs Aspirant has been facing critically regarding the Jobs Reservation for PwDs in Nagaland Government.
Under the Right of Person with Disablities Act, 2016 It mandated to give 4% Reservation in Government Jobs for person with benchmark disabilities However, in Nagaland Reservation has been misused.
Last year 2024, The NSSB has advertised 297 post out of that if 4% is given it would be 11 post for PwDs but in reality the NSSB has given only 7 post which is not even 3% also. Recently (2025) the NSSB has advertised 198 post out of that if 4% is given it will be 7 but, they have given only 6 post, imagine if the Renowned Organized Government do such things what else do u expect from the Departmental Office’s in Nagaland .
Another confusing trends is going on in NPSC, recently they have advertised around 98 post which they have given beyond 4% i.e 6 post, (which should be 3 post only) However, in Benchmark disabilities we have different Categories like A,B,C,D,E here the recent advertisement the NPSC has allotted only to the category of A and B out of 6 post, just like the previous year.
And if this continuous it will effects many Jop aspirant especially PwDs peoples of various categories, as per the 2011 Census majority of the PwDs are from Categories (C) however they have denied in sharing the post Equally which violates rights.
Thus, i want to appeal to the concerned authority to address our problems before the Exam I.e 13 December 2025 and settle the Issues as possible and to function the Reservation systems with Fairly and accountability.
