RPwD Act | Horizontal Reservation for PWDs Must Cut Across Vertical Quotas Without Pre-Earmarking : Tripura HC
Tripura High Court rules that reservation for Persons with Disabilities under the RPwD Act is horizontal and must be applied post merit-based selection, not by pre-allocating posts within SC/ST/UR quotas. The court mandates interlocking adjustment only after preparing selection lists on merit, ensuring fairness in public employment for PWDs.
