- The Madras High Court asked the Tamil Nadu Government to clarify whether it will provide 1% or 2% horizontal reservation for transgender persons in civil services and government jobs.
- The Court granted the State time until 4 August 2026 to file its response.
- The matter was raised after Karnataka introduced a 1% horizontal reservation for transgender persons in all civil services and government employment.
- Horizontal reservation cuts across all social categories and is meant to ensure representation for special groups such as women, persons with disabilities, ex-servicemen, and transgender persons.
