The Other Backward Class is a collective term used by the Government of India to classify castes which are educationally or socially backward. It is one of several official classifications of the population of India, along with General castes, Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes (SCs and STs). The OBCs were found to comprise 52% of the country's population by the Mandal Commission report of 1980, and were determined to be 41% in 2006 when the National Sample Survey Organisation took place. There is substantial debate over the exact number of OBCs in India; it is generally estimated to be sizable, but many believe that it is higher than the figures quoted by either the Mandal Commission or the National Sample Survey.

  • Unter dem Begriff Other Backward Classes (englisch „andere zurückgebliebene Klassen“, OBC) werden in Indien bestimmte staatlich spezifizierte Bevölkerungsgruppen verstanden, die sozioökonomisch benachteiligt sind und deswegen eine besondere staatliche Förderung beanspruchen dürfen. Der Begriff ist in gewisser Hinsicht komplementär zu den Begriffen der Scheduled Castes und Scheduled Tribes. Der Bevölkerungsanteil der Other Backward Classes ist bisher aufgrund fehlender statistischer Daten nicht genau bestimmbar und wurde auf 36 bis 52 % geschätzt. (de)
  • Other Backward Class (OBC) (Klasy Upośledzone, Inne Kasty Prześladowane) – pojęcie prawne w legislacji indyjskiej, dotyczące upośledzonych społecznie i ekonomicznie grup ludności, które nie zostały zakwalifikowane do Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes. (pl)
  • 其他落後階層，是印度政府對社會和教育方面處於劣勢的種姓的統稱。 (zh)
  • En Inde, les autres classes en retard (Other Backward Classes, OBC) sont les castes qui sont défavorisées sur le plan éducatif ou social. Cette expression est employée par le gouvernement. C'est l'une des nombreuses classifications officielles de la population de l'Inde, avec la classe générale, et les castes et tribus répertoriées. Selon le rapport de la Commission Mandal de 1980, les OBC représentent 52% de la population du pays. En 2006, un sondage estime leur proportion à 41%. En Inde, le nombre d'OBC est objet de débat. Les Other Backward Classes et les castes répertoriées sont toutes deux des castes "en retard" que le système de castes traite de la même manière. (fr)
