Why was the mandal commesion set up? What did it recommend to the government?

Answer»

The Mandal Commission was established in India in 1979 by the Janata Party government under Prime Minister Morarji Desai with a mandate to "identify the socially or educationally backward." It was headed by Indian parliamentarian Bindheshwari Prasad Mandal to consider the question of seat reservations and quotas for people to redress caste discrimination and used eleven social, economic, educational indicators to determine backwardness.
