New Delhi: Ahead of the General Elections Prime Minister Narendra Modi government is getting set enforce the 10% quota for the economically weak in minority educational universities which was not part of the Bill passed recently in Parliament.

As the sources told ET Now. The matter is likely to be taken up by the Cabinet soon and if need be, the government may even pass an ordinance.

leader and former CEO of P&G India said that the idea of the reservation will not stand up in the court.  He said, terrible idea..not sure it will stand up in Courts because it is an infringement of human rights. While everybody should be equal before law, institutions should have the freedom that the Constitution gives them. He further added, “If the government starts interfering by imposing the quota, that's unconstitutional. China's success lies in relentless pursuit of excellence and the answer lies in good education and health. If you provide that to all Indians, you do not need quotas."

Fews days ago, in a big decision the Parliament passed a Bill providing for 10% reservation in government jobs and education for the people who are economically weak in the general category. Central government directed Educational Institution to implement this quota from the academic year 2019-20. The new law, however, did not cover minority educational institutions manifested by the country’s  Constitution.
