  • The Second Backward Classes Commission in India was established in the year of 1979 by the Janta Party Government under the Prime Minister Morarji Desai. It was headed by the Indian Parliamentarian B.P. Mandal. Hence, it was popularly known as the Mandal Commission.
  • The Mandal Commission was asked to determine the criteria to identify the socially and educationally backward classes in India and recommended steps for their advancement.
  • The Commission gave its report in 1980 and made further recommendations. One of these was that 27% of government jobs be reserved for the socially and economically backward classes (SEBC). The reservation issue was very strongly protested after the implementation of the Commission Report in the year 1990. People seemed to react vehemently because this very decision affected thousands of job opportunities.
  •  Some felt that the reservations were a necessary part to balance the inequality among the people of different castes in India while in contrast, others felt that the reservations were unfair and would deny equal opportunities to those who did not belong to backward communities. Following the nation-wide outrage against the order and protest, a court case was filed against the order. These cases were grouped together by the Supreme Court and called the 'Indira Sawhney and others vs the Union of India Case'.
