Vaiko said a series of cases had been filed in the Supreme Court against 69 per cent reservation and the court while itself had advised one of the petitioners to file a separate plea.
Urging the state government not to be complacent in protecting 69 per cent reservation, Ramadoss said caste-wise census should be taken to determine proportional representation for all the communities.
He said the Supreme Court had refused to accept the statistics provided by Tamil Nadu government which stated that 87 per cent of the people belonged to communities which come under reservation.
