I was denied reservation benefits in a Asansol college; what is my legal position?

Reservation in education is governed by Articles 15(4) and 15(5), which allow the state to make special provisions for SEBCs, SCs and STs. Denial of reservation to an eligible candidate is justiciable under Article 15 and the central Educational Act. File a writ petition under Article 226 in the Calcutta High Court challenging the denial and seeking a mandamus for admission. The court will examine the eligibility, the reservation policy and the roster compliance. West Bengal Premises Tenancy Act 1997 on reservations must comply with the 50 percent ceiling and the creamy layer exclusion laid down in Indra Sawhney, unless covered by an exception. Preserve the admission denial, the caste certificate and the reservation policy in Asansol. The court can direct admission with consequential benefits and reimbursement of fees where the denial was wrongful.
