Supreme Court's five-judge Constitution bench starts pronouncing its judgment on petitions challenging the constitutional validity of a Maharashtra law that grants reservation to the Maratha community in education and jobs 
Maratha reservation: Justice Bhushan, reading out the judgment said, we do not find any reason in revisiting Indira Sawhney judgment
Justice Bhushan 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
Supreme Court in its judgment said that there was no valid ground to breach 50% reservation while granting Maratha reservation
SC strikes down reservation for Maratha community in education/ jobs exceeding 50%
SC also made it clear in its judgement that people from the Maratha community cannot be declared as educationally and socially backward community to bring them within the reserved category.
