Congress Plans Supreme Court Challenge Over MP OBC Quota Verdict
Congress announced it will take the Madhya Pradesh High Court’s decision that struck down the state’s 27% OBC reservation quota to the Supreme Court, seeking to overturn the ruling. The party says the verdict undermines affirmative action for socially and educationally backward classes and could set a precedent affecting reservation policies nationwide.
Congress moves to Supreme Court
The party will file a petition challenging the MP High Court order that nullified the 27% OBC quota.
- Reason: Protect affirmative action for socially and educationally backward classes.
- Impact: Could influence reservation policies across India if the Supreme Court overturns the ruling.
