The Supreme Court on Friday is considering widening the ambit of its examination of a Haryana law granting 75% quota for locals in private sector, to similar laws said to be prevalent in States such as Andhra Pradesh and Jharkhand.
A Bench led by Justice L. Nageswara Rao asked the Haryana government to submit details of cases on domicile quota laws pending in the High Courts of Andhra Pradesh and Jharkhand. “We have been informed that such policies are also there in Jharkhand and Andhra Pradesh and are pending adjudication in High Courts,” Justice Rao remarked.
The Bench was hearing an appeal filed by the Haryana government against a Punjab and Haryana High Court order staying the implementation of the legislation, which provides 75% quota for locals in the private sector.
