The Jawaharlal Nehru University Teachers' Association (JNUTA) is raising strong objections against the university's decision to introduce a 5% supernumerary quota for employees' wards, including teachers.

The association labeled the move as regressive, citing it lacked both rational and ethical justification and criticizing the administration for unilateral decision-making without proper consultation with faculty members.

JNUTA advocates for broader measures such as restoring deprivation points to address gender imbalances and is demanding transparency and accountability within the university's administration.
