  • The Justice G. Rohini-led Commission was established in 2017.
  • It was to explore the sub-categorization of Other Backward Classes (OBC) groups.
  • It was appointed by the President under the powers conferred by Article 340 of the Constitution.
  • Major Findings
    • The Dominance of Few Caste Groups: A small number of caste groups among all OBC groups were found to dominate the reservation quotas meant for OBCs.
    • Equitable Redistribution: The need to ensure a more equitable distribution of benefits among OBC communities was identified, aiming to address the imbalance caused by the dominance of certain groups.
    • Reservation Allocation Formula: The Commission formulated a formula to allocate reservation shares based on historical underrepresentation, with the objective of providing a larger share to historically marginalized groups and reducing the share of dominant groups.
    • Rationalization of Central OBC List: The Commission suggested corrections and replacements in spellings within the Central OBC list, aiming to rectify errors and inaccuracies in the entries.
