Supreme Court<\/strong>: Explaining the scope of writ jurisdiction, the bench of MR Shah*<\/strong> and BV Nagarathna, JJ has held that the State Government\u2019s action taking a policy decision to prescribe a particular percentage of reservation\/quota for a particular category of persons, cannot be interfered with by issuance of a writ of mandamus, directing the State Government to provide for a particular percentage of reservation for a particular category of persons other than what has been provided in the policy decision taken by the State Government.<\/p>\n

The Court was deciding the appeal against the Punjab and Haryana High Court verdict where the High Court had directed the State to issue a fresh notification providing for 1% reservation\/quota for children\/grand children of terrorist affected persons\/Sikh riots affected persons in all private unaided nonminority Medical\/Dental institutions in the State of Punjab and had further directed that the said reservation\/quota shall apply to management quota seats as well and further directed that the fresh notification shall also provide for a sports quota of 3% in Government Medical\/Dental Colleges.<\/p>\n

The State of Punjab framed its Sports Policy in the year 2018 which provided that 3% reservation in admissions will be provided for graded sports persons. However, by order dated 25.07.2019, a conscious decision was taken by the Government of Punjab to provide 1% reservation for sports persons. The said order was passed taking into consideration Clause 10 of the Sporty Policy, 2018.<\/p>\n

The Court noticed that while it was true that as per clause 8.11(v), 3% reservation for sports persons has been provided, however, it is to be noted that clause 10 permits\/allows any other department to have specific policy providing for reservation for sports persons other than 3%. Also, the order has been issued and 1% reservation\/quota for sports persons is provided after taking into consideration the Sports Policy, 2018. Therefore, a conscious policy decision has been taken by the State Government to provide for only 1% reservation\/quota for sports persons.<\/p>\n

The Court, hence, held that the High Court has committed a grave error in issuing a writ of mandamus and directing the State Government to provide for 3% reservation\/quota for sports persons, instead of 1% as provided by the State Government.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe High Court has exceeded its jurisdiction while issuing a writ of mandamus directing the State to provide a particular percentage of reservation for sports persons, namely, in the present case, 3% reservation instead of 1% provided by the State Government, while exercising powers under Article 226 of the Constitution of India.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Therefore, the impugned common judgment and order passed by the High Court insofar as directing the State to provide for 3% reservation for sports persons and\/or provide for a sports quota of 3% in the Government Medical\/Dental Colleges was found to be unsustainable and was hence, set aside.<\/p>\n
