Detailed Solution
The correct answer is three.
The 105th Constitutional Amendment Act 2021 officially titled the Constitution (One Hundred and Fifth Amendment) Act restored the authority of State governments to identify Socially and Educationally Backward Classes (SEBCs), including Other Backward Classes (OBCs). This amendment was introduced in response to a Supreme Court ruling in 2021, which interpreted the 102nd Amendment as having taken away this power from the States. To address the issue promptly, the amendment was passed by both Houses of Parliament and received Presidential assent on August 18, 2021.
