Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the issue of reservation norms applicable to Manipur University following its conversion from a State University to a Central University. The court upheld the High Court's ruling that mandated adherence to the reservation percentages for Scheduled Castes, Scheduled Tribes, and Other Backward Classes as stipulated in the Central Educational Institutions (Reservation in Admission) Amendment Act, 2012. The appeal was dismissed, affirming the necessity of compliance with the amended reservation norms.
