The forward castes are 30% of the population and can still get 50.5 % of the seats, and actually even more in practice.
So, the numbers are not absurd, but quotas are reviewed every ten years, and not permanent. And the quotas don't apply to the rich backward caste members. See creamy layer.
- adityab 11y agoI'm not sure of the proportion of the Patel community within/outside that, but the creamy layer is a bit of a joke. :/ 1. It applies only to OBC (not even SC/ST) 2. You need to declare your family's total gross income to be entered into the creamy layer. If you declare such an income, you need to pay taxes. And we know how rampant tax fraud is everywhere... The incentives are all wrongly aligned.
