The Supreme Court has dismissed the Centre’s plea seeking review of the May 5 majority verdict which held that the 102nd Constitution amendment took away states ‘power to declare Socially and Educationally Backward Classes (SEBC) for grant of quota in jobs and admissions.
A five-judge bench headed by Justice Ashok Bhusan said : “We have gone through the review petition filed against the judgement dated May 5, in writ petition… the grounds taken in the review petition do not fall within the limited ground on which review petition can be considered.”
“We do not find any sufficient grounds to entertain this review petition. The review petition is dismissed,” the bench said in its order uploaded on thursday.
