Hyderabad: The Andhra
Pradesh government today announced that extension of reservations
for Muslims in government jobs and education will depend on the
outcome of a writ petition in the Supreme Court even as it
extended quota for various backward classes by another 10 years.
"Extension of reservations for Muslims under Group-E of the quota
system will be subject to the outcome of the writ petition pending
before the Supreme Court," State Information and Public Relations
Minister D K Aruna said.
Briefing newsmen at the end of the state Cabinet meeting, chaired
by Chief Minister N Kiran Kumar Reddy here today, Aruna said the
Council of Ministers decided to extend reservations in jobs and
education to backward classes by a further period of 10 years. The
existing quota system would come to an end this month.
