The bench of Chief Justice D K Upadhyaya and Justice Arif Doctor was hearing a bunch of petitions challenging the Maharashtra State Reservation for Socially and Educationally Backward Classes Act, 2024, under which 10 per cent reservation was granted to the community in government jobs and education. The quota enabling Bill was passed in a special session of the state legislature last month.
A division bench directed the state government to file an affidavit in response to the petitions seeking an interim relief on implementation of the recently enacted law granting a separate 10 per cent quota in jobs and education to the Maratha community.
