"If you waited 56 years for reservation, why not one more year? What is the hurry?" the Supreme Court sought to know as it rejected the Centre's plea to vacate the stay on the 27% OBC quota in educational institutions.
The Apex Court made it clear that the Centre was 'first trying to play the game and then framing the rules.'
The two-judge bench gave the order after Solicitor General G E Vahanvati made a forceful plea for vacating the stay while arguing that the Apex Court had no power to pass any final order on the subject.
