Answer:
You know that the Supreme Court and the High Courts in India settle disputes arising out of
governmental decisions. Some persons and associations opposed to this order filed a number of cases in
the courts. They appealed to the courts to declare the order invalid and stop its implementation. The
Supreme Court of India bunched all these cases together. This case was known as the ‘Indira Sawhney
and others Vs Union of India case’. Eleven judges of the Supreme Court heard arguments of both sides.
By a majority, the Supreme Court judges in 1992 declared that this order of the Government of India was
valid. At the same time the Supreme Court asked the government to modify its original order. It said that
well-todo persons among the backward classes should be excluded from getting the benefit of reservation.
Accordingly, the Department Personnel and Training issued another Office Memorandum on 8 September
1993. The dispute thus came to an end and this policy has been followed since then.
