Jaipur : In Rajasthan, reservation is being given to 59 castes in the Scheduled Caste category, 12 in the Scheduled Tribe category and 92 castes of different categories in the backward class. The state government has given this answer to a question raised in the assembly in the last session of the previous government. The government has said in its reply that orphan children have been given reservation in the Other Backward Classes.
BJP MLA from Beawar, Shankar Singh Rawat had asked the government in the assembly whether there is a plan to include Rawat and Mehrat caste in the ST category. To this, the government has replied that no such proposal is under consideration.
