Maharashtra Mandal Commission Report

The Maharashtra Mandal Commission Report was created in 2000 to address social and educational disparities among different communities in Maharashtra. It recommended reserving a percentage of government jobs, admissions, and other benefits for marginalized groups like Scheduled Castes, Scheduled Tribes, and Other Backward Classes, to promote their development and equality. The goal was to ensure fair opportunities and reduce discrimination, fostering inclusive growth within society. The report has played a significant role in shaping affirmative action policies aimed at social justice and upliftment of historically disadvantaged communities in the state.
