Constitutional Law
Reservation Policy (Constitutional)
Constitutionally sanctioned affirmative action measures reserving a percentage of seats or posts for specified historically disadvantaged categories.
Reservation provisions are a specific, constitutionally recognised exception to strict formal equality, aimed at ensuring genuine, substantive equality of opportunity for groups that have historically faced systemic disadvantage.
The scope, extent, and application of reservation policy remains one of the most extensively litigated areas of Indian constitutional law.
