(September 2015) </Td> </Tr> <P> The system of reservation in India comprises a series of action measures, such as reserving access to seats in the various legislatures, to government jobs, and to enrollment in higher educational institutions . The societal inequality in India is represented by the grossly inadequate representation of Scheduled Castes, Scheduled Tribes and Other Backward Castes in employment and education due to historic, societal and cultural reasons . The reservation nourishes the historically disadvantaged castes and tribes, listed as Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes by the Government of India . The reservation is undertaken to address the historic oppression, inequality and discrimination faced by those communities and to give these communities a place . It is intended to realize the promise of equality enshrined in the Constitution .
