IIMs begin to sift creamy layers among OBC

The Hindu News Update Service: "After putting the admission process on hold, the Indian Institutes of Management have begun the exercise to sift creamy layer among OBC by asking candidates belonging to the category to give details of their status with regard to "creamy layer" in keeping with the Supreme Court directive.

The IIMs move comes in the wake of HRD Ministry's directive last Sunday to all centrally-funded elite educational institutions, including IIMs and IITs, to implement the OBC reservation from this year sans creamy layer. "
