Supreme Court On Reservation in Judiciary

State of Bihar and another, Appellants v. Bal Mukund Sah and others, Respondents.

S.B. MAJMUDAR, G.B. PATTANAIK, V.N. KHARE, U.C. BANERJEE AND R.P. SETHI, JJ.

Constitution of India, Articles16(4), 335 Reservation for backward classes – Enabling power under Article 16(4) – Subject to constitutional limitation of "efficiency of administration" - Maintenance of efficiency in judicial administration - Is within exclusive purview of High Court - High Court has to be consulted before making reservation in subordinate judiciary.

Articles 16(4), 233, 234, 309 – Bihar Reservation of Vacancies in Posts and Services ( for Scheduled Castes, Scheduled Tribes and Other Backward Classes) Act 1991), Section 41 - Reservation in judicial service - Only after consultation with High Court – Constitutional scheme under Articles 233, 234 and concept of independent judiciary mandates this - Section 4 of Bihar act enacted under Article 309 providing for reservation cannot operate so far as appointments to District and Subordinate Judiciary are concerned and is ultra vires to that extent ...

Articles 233, 234, 16(4), 320(4) Appointment - District and subordinate judiciary- Consultation with High Court - Scope of, cannot be equated with that of consultation with service commission - Saying that policy of reservation in appointments would be outside scope of consultation with High Court by equating consultations with the two constitutional functionaries - Is not proper. (Source: AIR 2000 Supreme Court 1296)

Reservation for Protection against Majoritarian Communalism

The governing class has obtained its power by the same system of reservations which it is now opposing on the ground of communalism ...

... In asking for reservations the servile classes are not asking for anything new or anything extraordinary. The demand for reservation is a demand for protection against the aggressive communalism of the governing class, which wants to dominate the servile class in all fields of life and without imposing on the governing class any such ignominious conditions.
