Description


On 1 August 2024, a seven-judge Constitution Bench of the Supreme Court upheld the validity of sub-classification within the reserved categories in a 6:1 majority.

In an interview with the Supreme Court Observer, Dr Anup Surendranath, Prof. of Law at the National Law University, Delhi discussed the legal and social impact of the decision. He believes that while the judgement gets a lot right, its group-based approach to reservation and the extension of the ‘creamy layer’ exception to SC/STs, raise questions.
