The Supreme Court struck down reservation for the Maratha community in education/ jobs exceeding 50% on Wednesday.

SC also made it clear in its judgment that people from the Maratha community cannot be declared as an educationally and socially backward community to bring them within the reserved category.

Justice Bhushan, reading out the judgment said, we do not find any reason in revisiting Indira Sawhney judgment.

 He even said that with respect to Article 342-A, we have upheld the Constitutional Amendment and it does not violate any Constitutional provision and therefore, we have dismissed the writ petition challenging the Maratha Reservation.
