The Rajasthan assembly on Thursday passed a bill providing 5% reservation for Gujjar and four other communities in jobs and educational institutions by increasing the quota in the OBC sub group from 21% to 26%. However, it could be challenged in courts as it takes total reservation to 54%, which is 4% more than the 50% ceiling set by the Supreme Court.
