மேல்ஜாதி முஸ்லீம்களான போஹ்ரா, கோஜா, முகல், பட்டாணி, செய்யது ஆகியோர் தவிர்த்த மற்ற 15 தாழ்த்தப்பட்ட ஜாதி முஸ்லீம்களுக்கு ஆந்திர அரசு 4 சதவீதம் இட ஒதுக்கீடு வழங்கியிருக்கிறது.
மத ரீதியில் இட ஒதுக்கீடு வழங்க அரசியல் சட்ட அமைப்பில் இடம் இல்லை என்று சிலர் வாதிடுகிறார்கள்.
ஆகவே இது ஜாதி ரீதியான இட ஒதுக்கீடாக கொடுக்கப்பட்டுள்ளது. இருப்பினும் இது மத ரீதியான இட ஒதுக்கீடுக்குள் ஜாதியை குறிப்பிடுகிறது என்பதற்காக நீதி மன்றத்தில் வழக்கு தொடுக்க இயலும் என்று ஒரு சாரார் வாதிடுகிறார்கள்.
தாழ்த்தப்பட்ட ஜாதி முஸ்லீம்கள் தங்கள் இடஒதுக்கீட்டில் பலன் பெற்று சிறப்புடன் வாழ வாழ்த்துவோம்.
4 percent reservation for socially educationally backward Muslims in AP

New Delhi
July 24: Andhra Pradesh government provided four percent reservation to socially and educationally backward Muslims in jobs and educational institutions by replacing the ordinance providing the same with AP Reservation (in favour of socially and educationally-backward Muslims) bill 2007 on Monday.
Though only 15 classes (include 80-85 % of Muslim population) have been included to take the benefit of the reservation quota as was identified by the AP backward classes commission. Act does not include the upper-caste Muslims like Bohras, Khojas, Mughals, Pathans and Syyeds.
Even in the backward classes list the creamy layer norm of center would be applied except in the case of annual income limit which has been fixed at Rs. 4 lacs.
Approval to BC commission report indicated the quota to be fixed to 4% so that total reservation may not exceed the limit of 50%. Earlier the quota limit was 5%.
Reddy government made it an issue in election campaigning and accordingly promulgated ordinance in July 2004 giving reservations to Muslims.
BJP members made a walk out of the assembly over the issue saying it unconstitutional. Majlis Ittehadul Muslimeen opposed it for the reduction of the quota as MIM demanded the reservation for the whole community.
Akbaruddin Owaisi MIM leader objected the division of Muslim community into caste-system as it was unislamic. A fatwa was issued by six seminaries in Hyderabad saying that it is against Islam to divide Muslims on the basis of caste and only piety can divide them.
Despite the opposition by the MIM and other seminaries, Muslims have welcomed the reservation act citing it as helpful for the economic as well as educational development.
Earlier too government provided reservation to Muslims but the move was frustrated by the Supreme Court saying reservation on the basis of religion is a violation of constitution.
