Not to be confused with Indian reservations of Native Americans (dubbed "Indians") in the United States.
Reservation is a system of affirmative action in India that provides historically disadvantaged groups representation in education, employment and politics. Based on provisions in the Indian Constitution, it allows the Indian government to set reserved quotas or seats, which lower the qualifications needed in exams, job openings etc. for "socially and economically backward citizens."[1][2]
