NEW DELHI: In a setback to the Maharashtra government, the SC on Wednesday stayed implementation of reservation for Maratha community in government jobs and education under the Socially and Educationally Backward Classes Act and referred the matter to a Constitution bench to decide on the validity of the law.
Over a year after it was challenged in the SC, a three-judge bench passed an interim order to restrain the state from implementing the quota law and said no reservation be granted to the Maratha community. The court made it clear that those who have availed of the benefit of the reservation, including for admission to medical colleges, would not be affected.
