Supreme Court dismisses pleas for review of 2021 verdict quashing Maharashtra law on grant of quota to Marathas
A five-judge constitution bench headed by Justice Ashok Bhushan, since retired, had on May 5, 2021 delivered the verdict on petitions related to Maharashtra government's decision to grant quotas to the politically influential community. Observing that the Maratha quota violated the principle of right to equality, the top court had also refused to refer to a larger bench the plea seeking to revisit the 29 year old Mandal verdict putting a cap on reservation at 50 per cent. from News-Economic Times https://ift.tt/8Qjd5ND via IFTTT
