The Supreme Court on Tuesday quashed a notification issued by the State of Jharkhand in 2016 to provide for 100% reservation for local residents in District Cadre Class III and Class IV posts in the 13 Scheduled Districts of the State.
The Court held that "100% reservation provided for the local residents of the concerned Scheduled Districts / Areas only would be violative of Article 16(2) of the Constitution of India and affecting rights of the other candidates/citizens of nonscheduled areas / Districts guaranteed under Part III of the Constitution of India".
