Irregularities in OBC Reservation in Kerala

A review meeting on September 9, 2025, revealed that the reservation system for Other Backward Classes (OBC) in Kerala is being misused, with 10% reservation for Muslims and 6% for Christians, undermining the rights of original OBC communities. The National Commission for Backward Classes questioned the state government about the basis for these religious reservations, but officials failed to provide adequate evidence. The Commission has directed the state to clarify its reservation policies and uphold the rights of original OBCs, as the current practices appear to violate established guidelines.
