New Delhi, September 15: : The Supreme Court on Monday ruled that seats remaining vacant after implementation of the 27 per cent quota under a Parliament-enacted legislation would go to students of the 'general' category.

"There is no no confusion about our judgement that seats which remain vacant after the implementation of the 27 per cent quota will go to the general category," a bench headed by Chief Justice K G Balakrishnan said.

The bench had on April 10 upheld the validity of the Central Educational Institutions (Reservation in Admissions) Act.
