Supreme Court rejects reservation to Jats under OBC
quota
Supreme Court (SC) has rejected the
notification issued by Union Government to include Jats in the Central list of
Other Backward Classes (OBC) for the benefit of reservation. A bench of Justice
Tarun Gogoi and Justice R.F. Nariman found fault with the Centre’s decision to
overlook the findings of the National Commission for Backward Classes (NCBC)
stating that Jats do not deserve to be included in the Central list of OBC as
they don’t form socio-economic backward class. The Narendra Modi government had
supported UPA regime's decision to include the Jat community in the central OBC
list for providing reservation.
