The Bombay High Court hearing petitions challenging the state government’s decision to grant a 10 per cent quota to Marathas on Wednesday issued a notice to the Maharashtra State Backward Class Commission (MSBCC) making it a party respondent.
A full bench of Chief Justice D K Upadhyaya and Justice G S Kulkarni and Justice Firdosh Pooniwalla impleaded the commission and issued a notice, a day after noting that the MSBCC was a necessary party to the pleas as some of them had also challenged the commission’s report recommending reservation.
