Telangana banks on door-to-door survey data to build quota case

IndiaTimes Monday, 17 March 2025
The Telangana assembly passed two significant bills increasing reservations in education, government jobs, and self-governance from 50% to 70%. Proposing 42% for BCs, 18% for SCs, and 10% for STs, the legislation showcases political unity and aims for a constitutional amendment. Empirical data from a state-conducted survey backs this move, challenging the Supreme Court’s existing reservation cap.
