equal opportunity in the public employment to all the citizens

within INDIA. The same was inserted in the Art. 16 of the
LL.M. UGC­
Indian Constitution. But considering the backward classes a
NET Dec2011 special provision was inserted in the same Art. In clause 4 i.e., in Art. 16(4). This section empowers the State to make a special provision for those backward classes who in the opinion of the State are not adequately represented in the service under the State.
But in these connection two questions reasonable explores our mind that:
i. Who will be designated as a backward class people for the purpose of this section? & ii. Who will be treated to be inadequate in the employment under State?
Because there were no suitable answers of these two questions given under the provision of the Constitution. By taking this advantage the ruling party who were in the power at Centre utilised this provisions for their own political benefit. But this case (which is also famously known as MONDAL COMMISSION’S case) plays an important role to find out the answer of these two questions. So it is very important for us to know the fact, issue, findings & judgement of this case which are going to be discussed on subsequently.

Classes (By a Presidential Order under Article 340 of the Constitution of India, the first
Backward Class Commission known as KAKA KALLELKAR's
