Chhattisgarh Chief Minister Bhupesh Baghel announced an increase in reservations for OBCs and Scheduled Castes in state government jobs and education.
About:
Chhattisgarh government will increase the quota for Scheduled Castes by 1 % while nearly doubling reservation for OBCs from 14 % to 27 %. The quota for Scheduled Tribes remains at 32 %.
Once in effect, it will mean Chhattisgarh will have a total of 72 % reservation (32 % for STs, 13 % for SCs and 27 % to OBCs), the highest in the country and far above the 50 % cap on quotas mandated by the Supreme Court.
The state government is still considering the 10 % centre mandated EWS quota for the general category. if implemented, it would take the reservation to 82 %.
