MVA govt faces OBC ire after SC snub on 27% quota in local self-govt
Amid rising outrage from the Maratha community in the wake of cancellation of quota in education and government jobs, the Maha Vikas Aghadi government received yet another blow after the Supreme Court rejected its review petition challenging the apex courtâs ruling that reservations to OBCs cannot exceed 50 per cent of the seats in local bodies reserved for SCs, STs and OBCs taken together.
Although the SC order was applicable to tribal dominated Washim, Akola, Nagpur, and Bhandara local bodies, the government will have to make all efforts to pacify the OBCs which are opposed to touching their 27% quota for providing reservation to the Maratha community.
