  • Two notifications were issued by the Haryana government sub-classifying backward classes solely on economic basis while fixing the criteria for creamy layer.
  • Supreme Court has quashed the Haryana government’s notification.
  • The apex court held that the Haryana’s notifications have violated the law declared in the Indra Sawhney judgment by identifying creamy layer only on the basis of income.
  • Apart from the economic criterion, social, educational and other factors must also be taken into account before defining a “creamy layer” among the backward classes.
