There has been great hysteria over this anti-reservation judgment. Someone ought to do a calm, dispassionate analysis of this judgment to determine what exactly the Supreme Court ruled. The Supreme Court’s jurisprudence on educational law is a like a never-ending jigzaw puzzle game. It gets more complicated by the day because extra pieces are added without anyone assembling the entire puzzle. Regretably, the latest judgtment is another instance (and I’m purloining the great Seervai here) of our Court wandering about in a maze of its own creation. Any thoughts and comments? Please read the judgment before writing, as I’m sure most of those complaining have not!
