Issue –
State has preferred the present appeal against the High Court Order of “providing for 1%
reservation/quota for children/grandchildren of terrorist affected persons/Sikh riots affected
persons in all private unaided non-minority Medical/Dental institutions in the State of
Punjab”
Therefore, the question posed for the consideration of this Court is, whether the State
Government’s action taking a policy decision to prescribe a particular percentage of
reservation/quota for a particular category of persons, can be interfered with by issuance of a
writ of mandamus, directing the State Government to provide for a particular percentage of
reservation for a particular category of persons other than what has been provided in the
policy decision taken by the State Government.
