The Mandal Commission, or the Socially and Educationally Backward Classes Commission (SEBC), was established in India on 1 January 1979 by the Janata Party government under Prime Minister Morarji Desai [1] with a mandate to "identify the socially or educationally backward classes" of India.[2] It was headed by the late B.P. Mandal an Indian parliamentarian, to consider the question of reservations for people to redress caste discrimination, and used eleven social, economic, and educational indicators to determine backwardness. In 1980, based on its rationale that OBCs ("Other backward classes") identified on the basis of caste, economic and social indicators comprised 52% of India's population, the Commission's report recommended that members of Other Backward Classes (OBC) be granted reservations to 27% of jobs under the Central government and public sector undertakings, thus making the total number of reservations for SC, ST and OBC to 49%.[3][1]

Though the report had been completed in 1983, the V.P. Singh government declared its intent to implement the report in August 1990, leading to widespread student protests.[4] It was thereafter provided a temporary stay order by the Supreme court, but implemented in 1992 in the central government.

 Mandal Commission was set up on Jan 1

in year 1979 by then Prime Minister Late Sri Morarji Desai.  The

commission was headed by then Member of Parliament Bhindeswari  Prasad

Mandal from Bihar. Mandal commission was started and pushed forward by National

Janata Party.

  The Mandal commission was set up to identify in the country,

various socially, economically and educationally backward castes and

classes.  The people belonging to these castes and classes were to be

classified under OBC or Other Backward Classes.  Then they were

recommended for 27% reservation in jobs in the government offices and public

sector undertakings.  The idea is to give a social lift upwards to the

other backward classes.  The OBC were to be identified from Hindu and non

Hindu population not belonging to forward castes and SC/ST.
