Corruption is everywhere. There is noway other than to fight for justice.

Recently I attended one interview for the post of Assistant Professor in Library and Information Science in a well established University. In terms of qualification and domain knowledge my candidature was the best but you know what had happened| They selected another candidate for the post who was even not suitable to apply for that post.

As they cannot manipulate the score given against qualification (i got highest score in Academic among all the candidates), they manipulated the score given for Domain Knowledge. They have counted the research experience of the selected candidate as 5 and 1/2 years as because the candidate spend 5 1/2 years for his Ph.D. and against me it is 1 year because after Ph.D. I have done a minor research project of 1 year duration. According to them I have zero publication (they overlook my complete biodata). the other scholar have 3 and 1/2 years of teaching experience because he was the UGC JRF (they overlook the India Gazette Notification where it was mentioned clearly that the time spend on research cannot be counted as research/teaching experience).

I got all these information through an RTI, the copy is still with me. However the person who is selected for the post is one of my best friend, and the experts were the people I used to respect most so I dont have any option than to remain silent.
