Meritorious Reserved Category candidate entitled to reservation: Constitutional Bench

Meritorious Reserved Category candidate entitled to reservation: Constitutional Bench: "In a recently delivered judgment a Constitutional Bench of the Supreme Court has declared the meritorious candidates belonging to reserved categories [MRC] are entitled to invoke the benefit of being from reserved categories in the Union Public Services Examination irrespective of the fact that they have qualified for employment on their own effort. The matter had been referred to a Constitutional Bench to decide the important question of law "as to whether candidates belonging to reserved category, who get recommended against general/unreserved vacancies on account of their merit (without the benefit of any relaxation/concession), can opt for a higher choice of service earmarked for Reserved Category and thereby migrate to reservation category".
