Centre notifies Act mandating political reservation for tribals in Goa Assembly

The Centre has notified the Act that grants political reservation for the Scheduled Tribe (ST) community in the 40-member Goa legislative Assembly. The Act passed earlier by Parliament mandates reservation of four seats for tribal candidates in the Goa Assembly for the first time. Goa Chief Minister Pramod Sawant recently met Union Home Minister Amit Shah urging him to expedite the process of reservation for the ST community in the Assembly, which will go to polls early next year. Sawant expressed his “deep gratitude” to Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Home Minister Amit Shah. Tribal leader and BJP MLA Govind Gaude called it a big victory of social justice movement.
