The Supreme Court on Thursday refused to entertain a bunch of pleas seeking quota for OBC candidates in the medical colleges of Tamil Nadu and said that reservation is not a fundamental right. "Denial of admissions to OBC candidates is a violation of their fundamental right," they read, seeking a stay on the counselling under NEET till reservation is provided. "What is the fundamental right to reservation? We assume you are all interested in fundamental rights of the citizens of Tamil Nadu. But right to reservation is not a fundamental right," the bench said.
