SC reiterates OBCs' creamy layer status can't depend only on parental income, rejects govt's plea

The Supreme Court reaffirmed its March 11 judgment, which held that the creamy layer status of OBCs cannot be decided solely on parental income. It also rejected the Centre's plea for two years to implement the ruling. On March 11, it had given the government six months to implement the judgment. On Friday, it extended the time by eight weeks.
