\u2022Amended Provisions of the Constitution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2022Empowered the state to consider the unfilled reserved vacancies of a year as a separate class of vacancies to be filled up in any succeeding year or years. Such class of vacancies are not to be combined with the vacancies of the year in which they are being filled up to determine the ceiling of 50 percent reservation on a total number of vacancies of that year. In brief, this amendment ended the 50 percent ceiling on a reservation in backlog vacancies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n
\u2022It was in 1990 that the V.P. Singh Government declared reservation of 27% government jobs for the OBCs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2022In the famous Mandal case (1992), though the Supreme Court upheld the constitutional validity of 27% reservation for the OBCs but it gave certain conditions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2022No reservation in promotions; reservation should be confined to initial appointments only. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2022Any existing reservation in promotions can continue for five years only (i.e., up to 1997).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2022The total reserved quota should not exceed 50% except in some extraordinary situations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2022This rule should be applied every year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2022The \u2018carry forward rule\u2019 in case of unfilled (backlog) vacancies is valid. But it should not violate the 50% rule.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2022A permanent statutory body should be established to examine complaints of over-inclusion and under-inclusion in the list of OBCs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
