Congress urges Parliament to pass law for exceeding 50% reservation cap, following JD(U)'s request to include Bihar quota increase in the 9th schedule of the Constitution.
Congress calls for Parliament to pass law enabling reservations to exceed 50% cap, following JD(U)'s demand for Bihar quota increase to be included in the 9th schedule of the Constitution. The recent Patna High Court verdict struck down Bihar's decision to increase quota for SCs, STs, and OBCs from 50% to 65%. JD(U) urged the BJP-led Centre to put the state's law under the Constitution's 9th Schedule to rule out judicial review.
