💨 Abstract

The Karnataka High Court ruled that a single community cannot be placed under two different reservation categories for education and employment, as it is discriminatory and unconstitutional. The ruling came in response to a petition by V Sumitra, who was appointed as a primary school teacher under the OBC quota but later found her community was categorized under Group 'D' for employment, rendering her caste certificate invalid for job-related reservation.
