Our Assessment

low

The declaration promised 18 percent SC and 12 percent ST reservation in government procurement and public works contracts, and reservations for SCs and STs in private educational institutions and in jobs at private companies that avail government incentives. No approved-source evidence was found that reservation in public procurement and contracts at these percentages, or in private educational institutions and incentivised private employment, has been enacted or implemented as of July 2026. Absent verifiable delivery, the verdict is pending. Budget: not applicable; this is a regulatory commitment.
