Tamil Nadu challenges High Court ruling on Muslim reservation for converts in Supreme Court
The Tamil Nadu government, led by CM Vijay, has filed a petition in the Supreme Court to contest a Madras High Court verdict. The court had ruled that simply converting to Islam does not automatically qualify an individual for Backward Class (Muslim) reservation benefits. The state is specifically appealing the court's decision to invalidate a government order from March 2024 that had granted reservation eligibility to specific groups of converts.
