Article 15(5) responded to P.A. Inamdar Vs. State of Maharashtra.
In P.A. Inamdar v. State of Maharashtra (2005), a seven-judge bench held that the state could not impose its reservation policy on unaided private educational institutions, minority or non-minority. Parliament responded with the Constitution (Ninety-third Amendment) Act, 2005, inserting Article 15(5) to enable special provisions for backward classes, Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes in admission to educational institutions, including private unaided ones, except minority institutions.
K.C. Vasanth Kumar (1985) and Kathi Raning Rawat (1952) are older equality cases, and the Rajendran case is an older decision on admissions; none of them concerned reservation in private unaided institutions.
