Answer 1

High Court of Andhra Pradesh.

Explanation: The Supreme Court restored the Andhra Pradesh law providing 4% exclusive quota in jobs and educational institutions for "backward" groups among Muslims.  The interim order passed by SC revived the law which was struck down as unconstitutional by a seven-judge bench of the Andhra high court on the ground that it violated the constitutional provision forbidding faithbased quota.
