Why did the courts revisit the bar on sub-quotas

An examination of the legal and social factors that led to the reconsideration of sub-quotas by the courts.
Certainly! The reconsideration of sub-quotas by the courts was influenced by a combination of legal and social factors:
  • Legal inconsistencies: Courts found that sub-quotas sometimes conflicted with principles of equality and non-discrimination enshrined in the law.
  • Impact on meritocracy: Concerns were raised about how sub-quotas could potentially undermine the notion of merit-based selection processes.
  • Societal change: Evolving attitudes towards affirmative action and diversity may have prompted a reassessment of the necessity and effectiveness of sub-quotas.
  • Public debate: Increased debate and discourse on the fairness and effectiveness of sub-quotas may have influenced the courts to revisit the issue.
