HYDERABAD: Reiterating the government’s commitment to provide 4 per cent reservation in education and employment to Muslims in the state, chief minister K Rosaiah said on Tuesday that the government had decided to move the Supreme Court against the High Court order quashing the GO.

Talking to media after a review meeting with the advocate general and other senior officials, including the chief secretary, he said the attorney general was requested to take up the case in the apex court. The government would also hire other legal experts to defend its stand on the reservations for Muslims.

Rosaiah said that the government would ensure that interests of Muslim students who got admissions in various colleges so far were protected. Asked if the government lost the case in the high court because of its failure to prepare a watertight

Muslim reservation policy, Rosaiah refused to comment and said, “I will not comment on the verdict of the high court.” He also refused to answer when asked if the state government proposed to go in for a constitutional amendment to implement the reservations.
