Arora: Article 340 of the constitution, having a commission which determines...I will deal with an overview. There is a caveat Educationally and socially backward get benefit of reservation. (Refers to Jarnail Singh)
Class disadvantage owes its origin to structural inequality.
Arora: Backwardness becomes an integral part of any form of reservation. My colleague read Ambedkar's debate. It was designed that exception will not eat the rule itself.

Sr. Adv. Meenakshi Arora (for petitioners): Given that we have a limitation on time, I will not be reading too many judgments - just three judgments, and one three-page submissions which we can give later or right away.

Gopal: Another misrepresentation is the relationship between article 46 and 103rd amendment. They say that the amendment is taking forward the mandate of Art 46. This is a misrepresentation.
