The Supreme Court refused to entertain a plea seeking mandatory rotation of constituencies reserved for SCs and STs in Parliament and State Assemblies, observing that decisions on such reservations fall within the legislature's domain and cannot be directed by courts
The top court had referred the matter to a five-judge bench on September 2, 2003, on a batch of pleas challenging the validity of the 79th Constitution amendment Act of 1999 providing reservation to SC/ST in Parliament and state Assemblies.
