Q. Recently, which state/UT government recently approved the 10% reservations for Paharis and three other tribes?
Answer:
Jammu & Kashmir
Notes: The Jammu & Kashmir LG administration has sanctioned 10% reservation for newly-included tribes, such as Paharis, in Schedule Tribe (ST), and included 15 new castes in Other Backward Classes (OBCs). LG Manoj Sinha approved the Social Welfare Department's proposal to amend Jammu and Kashmir Reservation Rules, 2005. This includes adding Pahari Ethnic Group, Paddari Tribe, Kolis, and Gadda Brahmins to the Scheduled Tribes Order, increasing ST reservation to 20%.
