OBCs (Other Backward Classes)

Other Backward Classes (OBCs) are a category of socially and educationally disadvantaged communities in India classified by the government. They are groups that have historically faced social discrimination and limited access to opportunities. Recognizing these challenges, the government provides special reservations and affirmative actions, such as reserved seats in education and jobs, to help uplift OBC communities. This policy aims to promote social equity, ensure better representation, and foster inclusive development within Indian society.
