Constitutional and legal

Provisions

The Preamble to the Constitution

Provides for securing to all citizens
social, economic and political justice and
equality of status and opportunities to all
the citizens

His Majesty in Council, vide the Government of India
Order, 1936 in accordance with the provisions made
in the Government of India Act, 1935.
In this Act, a reference was also made to
"Backward Tribes".
.

- 2 After Independence in 1947, our leaders and founding

fathers of the Constitution realized that political freedom
without social and economic contents would be meaningless.

and power, besides the means of livelihood.

special care
d) to declare equality of opportunity in the matter of

public employment.

Verification of claims of belonging to Scheduled

Caste/Scheduled Tribe
Any of the following certificates may be accepted by the appointing

a. A certificate in the prescribed form issued by one of the
authorities empowered to issue such a certificate.

b.
i.

List of authorities empowered to issue Caste

Certificate

Definition of SC/ST
A person shall be considered to be a member of Scheduled
Caste or Scheduled Tribe, as the case may be, if he belongs to a
Caste or a Tribe, which has been declared as a Scheduled Caste or
a Scheduled Tribe for the

area of which he or she is a

resident through an order under the Constitution.

NOTE:

State wise list can be seen in SC/ST BROUCHURE

Place of Residence
The place of birth of a person is not the determining factor in
deciding the caste.
Birth places of even two brothers may differ and in such a case it is
not justified to consider one as Scheduled Caste and deny the same
treatment to the other.
Therefore, the place of residence is to be determined with reference to the
Place/State to which the forefather of the person belong irrespective of the
fact that the person or his/her parents might have gone to some other
place temporarily in search of employment.

E. Migration
Where a person migrates from one State to another, he can
belong to a Scheduled Caste/ Scheduled Tribe only in relation to the State
to which he originally belonged and not in respect of the States to which
he has migrated, notwithstanding the fact that the name of his caste/tribe
has been scheduled in respect of that State in any Presidential Order.

. Marriage

Marriage does not change the status of a Scheduled Caste/Scheduled

Tribe.
In case a SC or ST lady marries a non-SC/ST man, then she will be
eligible for SC/ST benefits but her husband or children will not be
eligible for SC/ST benefit.
But this benefit are not available to non schedule caste SC/ST's
Reservation benefits shall be permissible only to those
SC/STs who are by birth belong to SC/ST,

and not to

those candidates who marry a SC or ST candidate

H. Adoption
In case of a legal adoption, the adoptive child, if adopted by
SC/ST parents,
acquires the status of a SC/ST.
. Reservation benefits are admissible to the SC candidates belonging
to the Hindu, Sikh or Budhist.
However, reservation benefits can be extended to Scheduled Tribes
who may profess any religion and submit the certificate of Caste/Tribe
which is included in the Presidential Order.

Reservation benefits are admissible from the date

of

submission of Caste Certificate.

. Reservation benefits are given only to those SC/STs in promotion who

are appearing against reserved quota vacancies.

. SC/ST candidates can be considered against reserved vacancies, and

also against the unreserved vacancies if their turn fall as per the

seniority list but for that they have to qualify with general standard like
others.

Exemption and exclusion

1. Vacancy filled by transfer

3 . When two different grades are merged into one single grade, then Roster
for lower grade is to be discontinued and old Roster of higher grade is to be
continued by taking shortfall of lower grade into Roster for higher grade.

When any Headquarters controlled post is decentralised as Divisional

Controlled Post, then on Divisions, fresh Roster is to be operated by taking
shortfall into new-Roster which is allotted by Headquarters Office, if any.

in Indira Sawhney's case, the Government enacted the

NationalCommission for Backward Classes (NCBC) Act in
April, 1993.
As per Section 2 of the NCBCAct, "Backward classes"

means such backward classes of citizens, other than the

ScheduledCastes and Scheduled Tribes, as may be
specified by the Central Government in the lists.

For the above purpose, Section 2 also defines

"lists" as lists prepared by the Central

Government for providing reservation in
appointments to backward classes of citizens,
which, in its opinion are not adequately
represented in services, under the Government
of India and any local or other authority.
The Ministry of Social Justice and Empowerment

has notified the lists of Castes /Communities

which are treated as Other Backward Classes.

- inter-state area restrictions

It may be noted that the Constitution

imposes inter-state area restrictions so

that the people belonging to the specific
community residing in a specific area,
which has been assessed to qualify for
the Scheduled Castes or Scheduled Tribes
status, only benefit from the facilities
provided for them. Similar restrictions are
applicable to the OBCs also

. Since the people belonging to the same

caste but living in different States / Union

Territories may not necessarily suffer from the
same disabilities, it is possible that two
persons belonging to the same caste but
residing in different States/ U.Ts may not both
be treated to belong to SC/ST/OBC
