In a case against an order on quota by the erstwhile Andhra Pradesh govt, the Supreme Court observes the government is ‘duty bound’ to revise SC/ST lists.
Spread over 395 articles in 22 parts and eight schedules at the time of its formation, the original Indian Constitution mentioned “land” in only four parts.
Tribal Affairs Minister Arjun Munda said that the government will take cognisance of their demands and bring the deprived sections of society into the mainstream.
The slogan ‘jal, jungle, zameen’ (water, forest, land) has been central to affirming tribal identity in Jharkhand. And no local election speech omits it.
The issue has again hit headlines after Modi govt demanded review of a 2018 Supreme Court verdict that excluded creamy layer in SCs, STs from quota benefits.
The study, conducted by Austria-based organisation, examines link between caste & under-5 mortality rate using data from Indian Demographic Health Survey.
Neither state govts nor companies earn large profits from lotteries. However, a look at the system shows there’s ample evidence of murky dealings and financial irregularities.
In an interview with Gulistan News this week, Union Home Minister Amit Shah said the government would leave law and order to J&K Police and slowly withdraw troops.
The ‘idea’ Kejriwal's politics grew around was a no-holds-barred fight against corruption. That is the reason Modi govt has now tarred him and his entire party with the same paint.
Many times I have also thought why reservation. The reservation which formed for the untouchable sc category is now added with touchable sc, whom access all types of benefits and real untouchable sc are being neglected. The reason for you can ask RTI, the percentage of untouchable sc in all sectors giving reservation.
Reservation cannot be given to any “forward” community/caste like Marathas, Jats, Gujjars, etc. At the same time reservation should not be in professional courses. The safety and lives of people are at stake. Why there is no reservation in sports? armed forces? judiciary? constitutional posts? I have the list of communities getting reservation benefits, so I use it for my safety and that of my family. Why should I risk my life and safety? Reservation is not the only way to remove the social discrimination. It has actually perpetuated it. It has divided us. When the great Dr. B.Ambedkar himself wanted reservation for 10 years, the rogue politicians have kept on extending
it and added more & more castes & communities for getting votes. To achieve social equality, it should be made compulsory for school children to stay for 1 month for every academic year till 10th standard in the homes of our brethren in the SC /ST communities. The use of caste based surnames must be banned by law. The government must give incentives like reduced income tax of 50% to a couple where one partner is from a SC/ST community and the other is from a “forward” community. We need such bold radical steps to bring social equality.
Supreme court should say something about EWS. Are they not privileged class and are very prosperous caste. Or is supreme court just targeting depressed classes and supporting it’s own caste reservation ( EWS reservation). Sc had stayed obc for three years(1990-1993) in jobs and in central educational institutions also 3 years stay was there by supreme court (2005-2007). No any stay was there for EWS reservation . Irony is that supreme court is SUPREME’S court
