The system of Reservation in India was introduced to uplift the historically disadvantaged sections of Indian society. Scheduled Castes (SC), Scheduled Tribes (ST), Other Backward Classes (OBC), Economically Backwards Classes are provided opportunities by providing them reservations in legislatures, Government Jobs, Promotions, educational scholarships.

The system of reservation existed in India even before independence. Postindependence the system of reservation was framed by the Constituent Assembly which was chaired by Dr. BR Ambedkar. Initially, it was introduced for a time span of 10 years. Post 10 year period, the legislators of India found the necessity to continue the system of the reservation to overcome many years of societal and cultural discrimination of certain sections of society.

The main goals of affirmative action are to bridge inequalities in access to education, employment, equal pay, and better standards of living.

William Hunter and Jyotirao Phule in 1882, originally conceived the idea of the castebased reservation system. The reservation system that exists today, in its true sense, was introduced in 1933 when British PM Ramsay Macdonald presented the 'Communal Award.
