BJP MLC A.H. Vishwanath, who welcomed the State government’s move to increase the reservation quota to SC/ST communities, has said that the government should take recourse to a constitutional amendment to make it legally tenable.
Speaking to mediapersons here on Saturdayhe said many States such as Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh, and Chattisgarh had taken such decisions in the past but they were struck down by the Supreme Court which has set a ceiling of 50 per cent on reservations.
