The Bench, led by Justice Ashok Bhushan, found there were no “exceptional circumstances” or “extraordinary situation” in Maharashtra, which required the State government to break the 50% ceiling limit to bestow quota benefits on the Maratha community.
All five judges agreed that the Marathas are a dominant forward class and are in the mainstream of national life. The above situation is not extraordinary.
The SC struck down the findings of the Justice M.G. Gaikwad Commission, which led to the enactment of the Maratha quota law, and set aside the Bombay High Court judgment which validated the Maharashtra State Reservation for Socially and Educationally Backward Classes (SEBC) Act of 2018.
