What was the reaction of the people to the implementation of Mandal Commission Report?
The implementation of the Mandal Commission Report led to widespread protests and counter-protests, some of which were violent.
People reacted strongly because this decision affected thousands of job opportunities.
Some felt that job reservations were essential to cope up with the inequalities among people of different castes in India.
Others felt that this was unfair as it would deny equality of opportunity to people who did not belong to the backward communities. They would be denied jobs even if they were more qualified.
