West Bengal government pulls back Supreme Court plea regarding OBC status for 77 groups
The West Bengal administration has retracted its Supreme Court challenge against the Calcutta High Court ruling that struck down OBC status for 77 groups, the majority of which are Muslim. Solicitor General Tushar Mehta notified the bench that the state intended to drop the appeal. This development follows the earlier decision by the TMC-led government to contest the High Court verdict that had declared the inclusion of these specific communities in the OBC category as invalid.
