Judgment text excerpt

The appellants challenged a Kerala High Court ruling regarding the interpretation of Section 39 of the Persons with Disabilities Act, 1995. The High Court had held that the term 'seats' in Section 39 referred to 'posts' for employment because the section is located within the chapter on employment. The Supreme Court examined whether the mandate for 3% reservation applied to educational institutions or was limited to employment vacancies.
