1.INTRODUCTION:
Bindheshwari Prasad Mandal (1918–1982) was an Indian parliamentarian, social reformer of
the country who served as the chairman of the Second Backward Classes Commission
(popularly known as the Mandal Commission). B.P. Mandal came from a wealthy zamindar
yadav (landlord) family[1][2] from Saharsa (currently Madhepura) in Northern Bihar.[3][4] The
commission's report mobilised a segment of the Indian population known as "Other Backward
Classes" (OBCs) and initiated a fierce debate on the policy for underrepresented and
underprivileged groups in Indian politics.

2.BIOGRAPHY

B. P. Mandal came from the Hindu Yadav community in India's system

promoting positive discrimination.

Mandal was a Member of Parliament in the Lok Sabha for the state of
Bihar from 1967 to 1970 and 1977 to 1979.
He was the Chief Minister of Bihar,[6] governing for 30 days in 1968, a
period of intense political instability (his predecessor Satish Prasad
Singh was first Chief Minister from OBC but only for three days). In
December 1978, Prime Minister Morarji Desai appointed a five-member
civil rights commission under the chairmanship of Mandal. The
commission's report was completed in 1980 and recommended that a
significant proportion of all government and educational places be
reserved for applicants from the Other Backward Classes. The
commission's report was tabled indefinitely by Prime Minister Indira
Gandhi. A decade later, Prime Minister V. P. Singh implemented the
recommendations of the Mandal
Report.

B. P. Mandal died on 13 April

1982. B. P.Mandal and his wife,
Sita Mandal, were survived by
five sons and two
daughters.[citation needed]

The Government of India issued

a stamp in honour of B. P.
Mandal in 2001. A college named
in his honour, B. P. Mandal
Engineering College, was
founded in 2007.[citation needed]
 CONCLUSION

The Mandal Commission adopted various methods and techniques to

collect the necessary data and evidence. In order to identify who
qualified as an "other backward class," the commission adopted eleven
criteria which could be grouped under three major headings: social,
educational and economic. 11 criteria were developed to identify
OBCs.[6]
