The current 20% reservation for the Extremely Backward Class in panchayats and urban local bodies will be increased to 30%. To increase the 50% reservation limit in proportion to the population, the law passed by the legislature will be sent to the Central Government for inclusion in the Ninth Schedule of the Constitution. The concept of “Not Found Suitable” (NFS) in the selection process for appointments will be declared illegal. All matters related to under- or over-inclusion in the list of the Extremely Backward Class will be addressed by forming a committee.” The resolution also promises land for homeless families from the Extremely Backward, Scheduled Castes, Scheduled Tribes, and Backward Classes, more reservations in education and government contracts, and a new authority to regulate caste-based quotas.
