What is the backlog in government job?

 It is difficult to answer the question in a small amount, yet I try to give it briefly. It is in a way a post marked to a reserve category that was not filled earlier. Those who are filled with the same category of people in the following years.

On selection in direct recruitment in government job, the department is required to fill the same number of posts as prescribed by reservation in the number of posts that are approved for direct recruitment.

For this process, the total posts are fixed in the roster register as SC, ST, OBC and others in 200 point roster. If the posts are less than 13 then a 13 point roster register is created. Who is to give each point in the roster register is already determined.

The category from which people have been selected for direct recruitment, they are fixed in that roster. After that as people vacate the post by promotion, resignation or retirement, they have to fill it with the same category. Since many times candidates of that category are not available, then they are taken again to fill the post next year. Therefore, these vacant posts get merged with the past years, hence they are called back logs or previous outstanding posts.

Many times the number of back logs of a reserve category exceeds 50 percent, then according to the guidelines of the Supreme Court, only 50 percent of the posts can be filled in a year, so even these posts remain vacant.

Many times the government is recruiting these back log posts by running a special campaign, then we feel that all the posts are being filled from the reserve category. But the rule is also that you cannot fill the posts of the reserve category with the normal, so there is no reason to quarrel.
