The West Bengal Assembly has passed the OBC Amendment Bill, removing 77 Muslim communities from the OBC list following a High Court order. The reservation quota has been reduced from 10% to 7%. The government stated that the previous administration included these communities without proper surveys, and the new law aims to restore the original 1993 OBC list based on socio-economic status. Additionally, the Chief Minister announced that UCC will be implemented in the state from August.
