Gujarat Government has quashed its all notifications regarding 10 percent quota for Economically Backward Classes, EBC. The provision of 10 percent reserved seat quota for Economically Backward Classes in educational institutions and jobs was made by the state government through a notification on 1st May this year.

The notification was later challenged in Gujarat High Court. The High Court had struck down the notification by its order on 4th August – which was challenged in Supreme Court by the state Government. During the last hearing, the Supreme Court ordered that the admissions made to any educational institution prior to the pronouncement of the impugned order shall not be disturbed. It said that since the impugned Ordinance had been struck down by the High Court, no further action towards implementation of the reservation made under the said ordinance.

In view of Supreme Court’s last verdict, the state Government has taken a decision to quash all notifications regarding 10 percent EBC quota.
