NEET-PG Counselling: SC Notes Reservation Is Not Against Merit; Says, Competitive Exams Do Not Reflect Economic And Social Benefits

Gunjan ChaudharyJanuary 20, 20220

The Supreme Court on Thursday said that reservation is not contrary to merit but furthers its distributive effect. The remark was made by the apex court while upholding the 27% all-India quota for the Other Background Classes (OBC) and 10% quota for the Economically Weaker Section (EWS) during NEET-PG counselling. "Competitive exams do not reflect economic social advantage, which is accrued to some classes. Merit should be socially contextualised. Reservation is not at odds with merit but furthers it's distributive impact," said the SC bench.
